Dance, when you’re broken open. Dance, if you’ve torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of the fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you’re perfectly free.
Jalal al-Din Rumi
The dance of the universe, the spinning microcosm, the macrocosm, the dance of my body, my heart. Outside, inside. It’s time to dance.

- friends invite me to a party: i can't i have dance
- 50000 tests to study for: i can't i have dance
- invited on a trip around the world: i can't i have dance
- win lottery: i can't i have dance
- dance: i can't i have dance
- breathing: i can't i have dance
You’re on your last step. It may be the 5th time you’ve done all your steps at practice or it could be on stage. You start to feel tired, your legs heavy and lungs on fire. But right now, it doesn’t matter that you can’t feel your legs or that you can’t breathe or that you feel like throwing up. What matters is that you push through that last step and finish.
That’s when a true champion is made.
A Letter From Your Dance Teacher
Hi, there! This is your dance teacher. Your older dance teacher. Let’s chat.
First, I know you love dance. You want to be great. You want to work. You want people to see all that you have to offer. You are also coming of age in a dance world that is so different from the one I grew up in, and I’m excited to see what develops.
But I’ve seen a lot that concerns me.
Irish Dance VS Tap Dance.
Favourite dance off in Riverdance. The ever so traditional Irish dance vs tap dancing~ When shown in contrast it is rather funny. I love them both tho~
Ok, as much as I love Irish dance I make fun of it at the same time..
How you practice in class…
How you push in that last step or walk it…
How you hold your posture in our let those arms fly…
How you nail that rhythm piece or brush it…
How you dance with confidence or go through the motions…
That is how you will dance onstage.
Dance each step, drill, piece, full dance like you are onstage at the Worlds
Demand that excellence is a habit.
Another recording I found from my phone from Worlds 2015, Lord of The Dance tune.
PS sorry for the background talking!
😍😭 I cry every time
So…this happened
Thanks to lizanneb I just got a bunch of great pictures of me crying with my teacher from right after awards at Oireachtas…I love the last one because she’s always called me her “lump of coal” who turned into a diamond after pressure and polishing
