Irish Dancers discussion

This folder was requested for noncompetitive dancers or to talk about noncompetition related stuff.

Woot, thanks for making this! :D

How many girls are in your Irish class? I'm one of three at my studio! :p

You're welcome!

I take two classes, sometimes three.

Regular class- About 15 of us
Ceili/performance class- 8 of us, it's a special class
Extra class- I attend this class for extra practice beforere feises. There are probably 10 of us.

Awesome! :D

Softshoe: In total we have 19, but it's divided into two groups. The highest group has Me, Chloe, Kiara, Shannon, Isabelle, and Kayla, and then the lower group is 13 other girls.
Hardshoe: Me, Chloe, Kiara, Shannon, Isabelle, Kayla, Bonnie, Erin, Jordyn, and Grace. (9)
Teams: Me, Chloe, Kiara, and Shannon

That's interesting that you take separate softshoe and hardshoe classes. IU've never heard of that concept. Do you like it?

Hey girls! Competition is obviously super fun, but shows are great also! What was the first show you did, what was the latest show you did, and what was your favorite show you did?

My first was the local St. Patrick's Day parade, and I also was honored to dance at the mall that day as a member of the company, which was super exciting because I'd only been dancing for seven months and I'd never competed. I was in three numbers.

My latest one was the local St. Patrick's Day parade this year.

My favorite show was probably one that we did at this huge, very famous outdoor performing arts center. We were one of the main attractions at an international festival they held there. It was so much fun, and we got to do three performances that day.

My first performance was at a mall. My first year of Irish, we performed at quite a few malls. :) I had an amazing teacher that year, and then her husband took over and it kind of went downhill. :P But my most recent {and possibly last, sadly} was the recital at the studio I currently go to! We performed at both locations for the studio. :)

That's so funny that our first shows were at malls! :D I've never done another mall performance, but that one was so darn fun. When I was done dancing, my teacher had me and some of my friends walk around to the people who were watching and talk to them about Irish dance and give them flyers. I loved it. It was also the first time I got my picture taken FOR FREE with a DSLR! My best friend's dad took amazing pictures of everyone and put them on the studio website.

Haha, that's so cool! :)
