Anton: Practicing Irish Dancing

Anton, 19 and a law student, attended the St. Patrick's Day parade in Moscow with his friends. About 190 cm tall, he was sporting a black leather coat, faded black jeans and black boots. Were it not for the Irish flag colors painted on his face - and Ireland t-shirt - you would think he was dressed for a rock concert. When asked why he came to the event, Anton said he liked Irish culture and added he has been taking Irish dance classes for the past three years, but admitted it isn't easy. ''I find it difficult to tap to the rhythm,'' he said.
