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."

"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."

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

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!
