"is it a fast treble behind the front foot? if so, someone helped me with those. you have to really squeeze your thighs together and be sure to be off your front heel. keep doing it slowly just like a front treble, until you eventually pick up speed…"

"congrats! have fun!"
"How did you do ?? We are all dying to know! Hope you had loads of fun :D"
Silpa S replied to the discussion 'socks versus tights'"Socks all the way. I think they show off our super strong leg muscles we've worked so hard for. :)
For performances I can see tights as a more favorable option but for competing I say socks."
"Try getting convertible tights! They have a hole in the bottom so you can pull them up over your feet."
Ginny replied to the discussion 'Making up your own choreography'"I have done it, but I've never asked my teacher about doing it in feises. Several were not traditional or comp style, and some were more beginner stuff. However, I have a treble reel I'm hoping to do in feis that I made up."
"that's awesome. i have had bad and good experiences with competitions.. some girls really can be quite nasty and mean. luckily most of them are nice and encouraging and I always try to be encouraging to my own competitors as well. There is…"
Cecile Greard replied to the discussion 'Making up your own choreography'"I once did my own treble reel step and my teacher let me use it at a feis. But she said she was granting me that privilege because I'm the student who has been in the school the longest."

Aisling's Journal
YouTube Irish Step
So I was thinking today about people online trying to teach Irish dance. While I commend anyone trying to go ahead and share dance with the world... alot of these people are flat out wrong or dancing incorrectly which is a shame. I posted on my thoughts about this...
I am hearing people call trebles "shuffles" which would make my teachers pass out! This isn't tap, its Irish Step and there is a difference even though some people don't think so.
What do you think?

Training is going well. Very busy. I didn't go to All-Ireland's because I wanted to focus solely on my World's dances

Shelly Hathaway said… Hi! Our schools feis is on February 4th this year. :) It's in Kearns, so about 30 min from the airport. I know exactly what you mean, I always like to choose a feis that's close to the airport. You would have to rent a car for this feis, though. Everything is spread out in Utah. Great for living here, but a little annoying when you visit. haha I hope to see you there anyway!
