Irish Franciscan monk dances his way into our hearts

A Franciscan monk broke into dance in honour of St Patrick’s Day which was filmed and put on YouTube.

In the short clip Brother John Ahern, reportedly from Boston, wishes his congregation a happy St Patrick’s Day before stepping onto a wooden panel, laid out especially for the occasion and wowing the crowds with some impressive Irish dancing skills.

The monk had some serious jig jives to show off to his audience and he wasn’t shy about showing them off.

A fine straight back, no movement in the arms and a haughty look on his face, the man had it off to a tee.

We wonder how long he had been waiting to put his amazing dancing skills to good use.

At least a year we reckon.
