11th in North America never felt so good 🔥 (at Hilton Orlando)

[theshinybuckles]

I’m due for my pre-major break down at any second

The stress is getting reel; especially when a TC decides to tell you “I don’t like that lead, you should do something easier” or “I don’t like that piece doesn’t seem slip jig” or how that same piece was just changed on another dancer by the choreographer.

But at this point I haven’t practiced the easier lead in over 3 months, and I didn’t receive the change in the slip jig sooooo I’m just going to keep on keeping on.

But that deep cry cry needs to come because it releases so much emotion/tension lol.

[kimbellll]

Don't worry I had my breakdown yesterday 😅👍🏼

TCRG Tip #5

When exchanging places with another dancer/couple in a ceili:

When you sidestep to the right, dance behind the dancer(s) you have exchanged places with. When you sidestep to the left, dance in front of the dancer(s) you have exchanged places with.

[midwestirishdancer]

Was anyone else taught “Never get left behind”?

[kimbellll]

We say "right to the rear!"

I miss you so much! I wish there was still a large community on here. It’s hard to follow dancers on instagram sometimes and it’s easier on tumblr to watch your journey and share in your joy and help you through your pain. I’m always on here and if you want to get in touch on instagram, my username is defygrav791. Probably no one will see this post but it’s worth a shot. I’m sorry a lot of you left because of drama and unnecessary hate. If you need any love and support, I’m here. I’m a good listener and I try to send lots of positive thoughts out. Hang in there! Good luck at Nationals!! Looking forward to your stories! 

[sky-dance]
