I have heard great things about Camelia Rose's Wigs. But you know what they say - SEEING is believing. So, does anyone know where I can find a picture online of what the Anna or Anna Long looks like on a dancer? I haven't had much success, and don't want to spend that kind of money without seeing what they look like on someone first! Thanks for your help!

My new CD "CHAMPTRAX" will be released in the next few weeks. The CD is mostly championship-length tunes played once, twice, and three times through. There are also four non-championship-length tune tracks. Until the release, you can download the non-championship-length tune tracks from the CD for free from the “Music Samples” page of my site www.markarringtonmusic.com. The tunes are jigs (113 bpm, 5+ minutes), single jigs (120, bpm 4+ minutes), reels (113 bpm, 4+ minutes), and hornpipes (138 bpm, 6 minutes). If you want any of these at a different speed you can order them on the “Order Music and Stuff” page.

[Edit]

Date Posted: 18:41:29 10/01/09 Thu

Stop with all the bashing, it doesn't happen against any other dance school, if you don't like Harney, then don't go there... Liam is a talented, dedicated teacher who happens to be the very best coach for my teenage dd. And YES, we have been elsewhere. I can only guess that all your negative, and mostly false, comments are because you are JEALOUS of their success... There is no requirements or DEMANDS to get solo dresses at any point, my younger dd placed very well last year in trad set wearing her school dress. Never was she told she had to get a solo dress, even though she is now in PW. Liam and Sally run a CLASSY, and ETHICAL (MEANING HONEST!!!) school, and my daughters would not want to dance anywhere else... SO, STOP BASHING.

note from teen dancer: I do not believe anyone is in the position to judge Liam Harney unless you know him personally, as I do, and I can honestly say that he is a great coach... I also believe it shows in our success, if you don't know, we have one of the (if not largest!) percentage of open champions in New England....
