Subject: "Overs" dancers - when and why did you make the leap? Author: contemplating [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 09:27:05 05/25/11 Wed It's something I think about often. I stopped competing adult levels a few years ago because it was always the same few people and seemed somewhat like a dead-end. I would love to chat with those of you that have made the move, learn why you decided it was right for you, hear how it all went and where you started out in the overs, and know what you are doing with dance now, etc. I would also like to comunicate with others that are considering it but just haven't made the move - like me.

Subject Author Date It all started when that stupid no slow hardshoe rule was put in place.... And-over dancer 21:10:40 05/25/11 Wed Agree: stupid slow-speed rule. Anyone hear that this year's meeting at NANs there will be a vote rescinding it? If so, that would be great, because I can't switch to overs for 2 reasons: 1, not allowed by my TC and 2, wouldn't be able to compete in adult ceili; I'm all for getting back slow speeds (NT) rumor or not? 09:13:48 05/26/11 Thu It was passed at the mini-convention and will be voted on by membership at NAIDCs. (NT) -- not a rumor, 11:10:54 05/26/11 Thu not just thinking becuase of speeds contemplating 13:25:58 05/26/11 Thu I know, the adult levels seem to be emptying out, sme dancers quitting? some moving to and-overs --- more NE dancer 22:52:33 05/27/11 Fri I'd love to attend feiseanna which do this. Unfortunately, as discussed in a thread below, Southern Region (US) dancers can't compete in any non-adult competitions. (NT) -- SRgirl, 05:47:56 05/28/11 Sat Yes, this is my hope! I do wish that all the regions could agree on something though - it's frustrating all around! -- Dongan Feis Secretary, 06:05:00 06/02/11 Thu Hi, feis secretary- Could you tell us if you are getting entries for the over-18 grades classes? This is what so many people (including me!) have been wanting - now let's all sign up and repersent! (NT) -- NE dancer, 11:33:16 06/04/11 Sat Will try to check after work and dance! Gotta go check on my experiment...had 5 minutes to check here :) (NT) -- Dongan Feis Secretary, 07:20:12 06/06/11 Mon Was able to check during lunch... -- Dongan Feis Secretary, 10:12:30 06/06/11 Mon So - we are talking the talk but not walking the walk ladies. No entries for beg. or PW, only 1 for Abeg & Nov. If this is what we want, let's prove it. Please some more over-18s make the committment and sign up for this feis. -- NE dancer, 11:57:51 06/06/11 Mon Wonder if somehow you could get this changed in the SR region? Any sympathetic TCs who might be willing to bring it up at meeting? (NT) and-over adult 18:48:34 05/28/11 Sat Re: Wonder if somehow you could get this changed in the SR region?

They were very few dancers (1-3) competing in Hop_123 19:21:45 07/02/11 Sat
