A Crosskey is a very traditional Irish Dance move that can be done in many different ways - Heavy or Softshoes, on the floor or in the air, with a click, two clicks, or even without.
In awe of that anwser! Really cool!
Variations
Butterfly: The Butterfly is the jumped Softshoe version of the crosskey, in the original meaning. Today, the name is also used for the Irish Dance version of an Entrechat. Execute like the basic floor version, imagining to do a full ankle roll with each foot (i.e. 1. pointing down 2. toes in 3. flex 4. point down again 5. landing).
Crosskey with clicks: Can be done with either 1 or 2 clicks. Execute the jump version as described above, but as the toes are turned in (2), hit your tips together (1st sound), and as you point down again (4), hit your heels together (2nd sound).
