Set dancing has been popular in Ireland for nearly 200 years.

It is usually danced by 2 or 4 couples to traditional Irish music.

Instructions for 80 sets are provided on this popular site

Many of the old sets have been collected and documented and are described by Pat Murphy in his book "Toss the Feathers" published by Mercer. This book describes the history, terminology and has instructions for 64 of the most popular sets. Pat visited Melbourne in 2005 and his workshops were enjoyed by over 100 enthusiastic dancers.
