- How tall is the NANs U11 champion? -- mom, Saturday, August 06, 11:44am Pacific [2]
Greetings from the Southern Region! My daughter is an U11 dancer who is tall for her age. Recently she has become discouraged that she may be too tall ever to do well at the Majors level, as she sees so many petite dancers around her at the competitions. I tell her it is how she dances, not her height. My daughter and I have noticed that the U11 NANs champion from your region, Ava-M. S., seems to be on the tall side. Please, I am not trying to gossip, but does someone know how tall she measures? She is quite an inspiration for my daughter and it would really encourage her to keep trying if she knew there was another taller dancer out there who had achieved success. Thanks so much.

My daughter is travelling to Seattle via Vancover this coming October for Sweet Adelines International. She and another Sweet Adeliner are planning to spend some time (5 nights) in Vancover. The accommodation that had originally been organised for her has fallen through and now she is stressing! I was wondering if any of you ladies either lived in Vancover or closeby would be able to home host these to girls (18yrs and 19yrs) for the period of time they are in Vancover. They (and I) would be extremely grateful. All they really need is a bed/airmattress on a floor.

- Irish Dance Survey -- Karen, Monday, February 02, 1:53pm Pacific [3]
Hi
My name is Karen and I go Kwantlen College in Surrey British Columbia. I am currently taking a statistics class for sociological research. The major assignment in this class is to develop a study and analyze the results. I will be doing a study about mothers and fathers, and their involvement with their children in Irish dance. The survey I will be administering is still under development and should be ready around the end of February. The results will not be used for any purpose other then allowing myself to learn how to conduct a study and will not be shared with anyone other then my professor and the participants if they wish. The only requirements are that you are that you have a child in Irish dance and are willing to answer the questions honestly. I do not require your name, so it can be anonymous. Right now I am just interested in seeing how many people would be interested in participating. If you would like to help me out please email me and let me know you would like to participate in the survey. I will then email the survey to you when it is complete, most likely near the end of February. Thank-you for your help!
My email is irishdancestudy@hotmail.com

- Couldn't post in reply to Exams so had to post new message here: -- ., Wednesday, September 10, 8:32am Pacific [7]
You brought up good points about the Ceili Dances and Diploma, but generally (except with very young dancers advancing too quickly into Open) one would expect a dancer that starts dancing at 4 or 5 to have covered the syllabus, including the Ceili Dances by the time they are around 12 or 13 when most would be in Open (probably most for quite some time).
I'm wondering why a Mom is promoting and wanting to start classes. Is this Mom also a TCRG? Don't you think that it's up to each individual teacher to organize the classes for their own School? It needs to be started when the dancers are young and incorporated into the actual classes.

I was wondering if there are areas in Western Canada that are in need of a TCRG? Eastern Canada is quite concentrated with schools. I was thinking that it might be more productive to move out west to open a school. (if there is a need for it).
I'm not a TCRG yet but I am taking the exams this year.

There seem to be some schools in our region that have been around for a while that don't have any dancers that recall at the National level.
Are the Possak and McDonnell schools competitive? I know they have been around for the past 10 years or so but don't have the results of some of the younger schools (Blakey, De Danaan ect.)
I'm thinking that it does make a difference which school you go to in order to get the results you want.
