From the Winkipop website:
Hello All,
The photos for the AIO won’t be online til Wednesday.
Long story short, we got screwed over by Jetstar on Thursday night with my flight from Sydney to the Gold Coast which they cancelled at 630pm citing bad weather(which was rubbish, given that other airlines were operating without a problem). They then lost our bags (which was extraordinary given that the plane never took off) for 2hrs and then by 10pm when we got served at the counter to re-book our flights we were told that all the Friday flights to Brisbane and the Gold Coast were full and that my earliest flight up was early afternoon Saturday!
Anyway, I arranged for a couple of QLD based photographers to cover the Fri/Sat/Sun. They’ll be express posting a hard drive to me and I should get it Tuesday afternoon and I’ll be publishing the photos then.

Thanks for your patience. Regards, Shaun

  - The exact same thing could have happened to Milton, this is completely beyond their control. We have had a similar thing happen to us with Virgin and had to drive from Canberra to the Gold Coast with 2 hours notice to get to Nationals on time. I feel very sorry for this vendor, this will have cost them a lot of money. (NT) -- Never flown Virgin again!, Mon, Jul 16 2018, 9:13:11"

- I think it's because the photographer pays a fee to be there then makes that back by selling the photos. Milton doesn't charge for his pics so can't afford to be there. I would be happy to pay for Milton and Julia's pics as they get great action shots (NT) -- .., Sun, Jul 15 2018, 9:21:27"
- I am quite sure that it has nothing to with Miltons finances but that question will never be answered (NT) -- Maggie, Sun, Jul 15 2018, 10:17:33"
- Vendor fee. I guess he wouldn't want to pay that if he's doing it for free. His photos are more meaningful to us he knows Irish Dancing better than anyone having his two girls who use to dance. (NT) -- I'm surprised there's money in this for the paid professionals., Sun, Jul 15 2018, 11:10:19"
  - My guess is exactly this. To run the event, vendors fees are needed, it must be profitable for the vendor or I guess he wouldn't keep coming back. These events are expensive to run, so that would be why they go with someone who can pay. Unfortunately for us, this means we pay too, but it is what it is. (NT) -- -, Sun, Jul 15 2018, 15:46:14"
- I would like to know what the cost would be to secure the photo rights to Milton for 2019. I am positive the ID community would be able to raise the money with an online community effort such as GoFundMe or something similar. (NT) -- Let's do this, Mon, Jul 16 2018, 8:35:58"
- All Milton used to ask for was his flights, accommodation and meals paid for. It was optional if you wanted to donate money towards his equipment otherwise the photo's were free. I'm sure dancers and their families would pay a little more on entry fees to cover his costs. (NT) -- He is a better photographer., Mon, Jul 16 2018, 13:08:56"

Does the new rule about postage mean all overseas dresses will be charged 10% GST on entering Australia now? Even those under $1000? -- Used and new dresses and other purchases?, Fri, Jun 29 2018, 13:01:29"
[ Post a Reply to this Message ][ Edit | View ]

Replies:
- As far as I can see, as with Australian retailers, GST is only charged by "Businesses with sales of AUD75,000 or more to consumers in Australia within a 12 month period". So used dresses sold by individuals will not attract gst if under $1,000 as well as businesses who sell less than 75K to solely Australian customers. The new low value import gst will be charged by the business at the point of sale, not when it enters Australia. Import duty on goods over $1000 will still be charged on entry to Australia as normal. Link inside.. -- hth, Fri, Jun 29 2018, 23:13:30"
- Short answer is yes for items under $1000 and rules remain unchanged for items over $1k or GST and import duties collected at the border. (NT) -- Seller applies GST at time or purchase., Sat, Jun 30 2018, 10:29:08"

  - No need to be rude! Many Australian schools do workshops with overseas dancers. If you want to know the details, you could contact him on the email address he left? How is it any more a cash grab than the many others who do workshops? Including Australian dancers who travel to schools and do workshops?

What a well run feis, very pleasant and helpful organisers and volunteers, fantastic warmup/practice floor. Just one suggestion: Sunday afternoon was a very long session, would have been so much better split into 15-17 and 18s and over so dancers don't have to be there for 6 hours.

- As a new school with or without transfers it’s an extremely hard time! These two work very hard to show a standard to represent themselves.... obviously you are on this page as part of the Irish dance community so for a new school what they would they would really need from the community would be a bit of support!!

Hi there... Just wondering if anyone knows the rules about how long an Aussie dancer can compete overseas and still be eligible for Nationals? -- Curious, Sun, Jun 10 2018, 19:37:28"
[ Post a Reply to this Message ][ Edit | View ]

Replies:
- Every Australian should be elgible to compete at Nationals. What a ridiculous idea that any Australian wouldn't be eligible to compete at their own Nationals. Which Nationals should they compete at? (NT) -- Beat them on the stage!, Sun, Jun 10 2018, 20:52:42"
  - Please, there is no need to be so aggressive. It was just a simple question regarding the rules. Perhaps I should have phrased it differently. I was just wanting to know if there were rules around Australian dancers competing with overseas schools and then returning home to compete at nationals? (NT) -- Something to consider for people wanting to travel :), Sun, Jun 10 2018, 21:30:32"
    - Please, there is no need to be so disingenuous. (NT) -- X, Mon, Jun 11 2018, 0:15:00"
- Need to be registered with a AIDA at close of entries. So you'd have to be dancing in Australia at that time. (NT) -- Not sure how associations would impact on this. I.e. if your school has a formal association with OS school., Mon, Jun 11 2018, 0:26:58"
  - Not sure if this is correct. I was told my child was unable to enter unless they were in Australia at the close of entries. Even though they were registed with AIDA at the beginning of the year. (NT) -- ., Mon, Jun 11 2018, 10:00:22"
    - Dancing in Australia at close of entries would mean registered with AIDA under an Australian school. don't wanna penalise Aussie dancers for training OS but there needs to be a time limit to make sure OS dancers don't sign up with Aussie schools last minute to enter. (NT) -- it is what it is. you'd have to be registered as dancing under an Aussie school by Jul 18, Mon, Jun 11 2018, 11:13:44"
      - It's not always a case of signing up at the last minute. Some times they just move back home. (NT) -- ..., Mon, Jun 11 2018, 21:13:15"
- If they can’t compete then that’s just stupid. If you are Australian why can’t you compete at Nationals. Don’t use the excuse that’s its unfair as every other sporting athlete train overseas where there are better facilities and competition. Sometimes people are forced to move OS due to circumstances, so why should the be restricted. (NT) -- Training OS doesnt necessarily make champions, you still have to have the talent and dedication, Mon, Jun 11 2018, 13:02:47"
  - You can discuss fairness until the cows come home but the rules state the cut off to be registered with an Australian school is Jul 18. -- more inside, Mon, Jun 11 2018, 15:48:48"
- Although some do not move OS due to their own choosing, you would be blind if you did not recognise that it has lately become a 'trend' to train OS for the experience, opportunities etc. Many make the decision to train OS, rather than in aus, so there should be no complaining about being unable to compete in aus championships. Besides, there are an extremely large amount of feises and championships OS so you would hardly be missing out on chances to compete. People from other countries cannot compete at aus nationals, so if you are training OS, you should be unable too. (NT) -- Disagree all you like., Tue, Jun 12 2018, 20:15:52"
  - Absolutely disagree! What possible reason could there be to stop them competing? (NT) -- All Australians should be automatically eligible to compete in Australian Nationals, Tue, Jun 12 2018, 20:28:30"
    - Nothing is stopping them from competing so long as they follow the rules of the championship - being registered (training) with an Australian school at the time entries are due. (NT) -- Many dancers do come back from OS to compete. Always great to watch them., Tue, Jun 12 2018, 20:39:14"
    - the nationals are supposed to be a closed competition if you are training overseas for the majority if not all of the year than you should be ruled out. (NT) -- same thing applies with Irish nationals. it is not about 'oh but I was born in Australia' it is where you are training and who you are registered with, Tue, Jun 12 2018, 20:43:53"
      - Why? What is the reason for ruling them out? (NT) -- Makes no sense whatsoever, other than reducing the competition., Wed, Jun 13 2018, 0:29:38"
        
        Because if you live and train overseas, you are an overseas dancer and not allowed to dance at the Australian Nationals. Choose one, either you live and train here or you live overseas. There has to be a line in the sand somewhere or you will get people born here but living overseas, coming back every year, dancing and leaving again. (NT) -- -, Wed, Jun 13 2018, 9:23:34"
        
        Exactly. (NT) -- Live overseas but fly home do Nationals. The rules are there for a reason, Wed, Jun 13 2018, 9:25:42"
        And why is that a problem? Because training overseas makes them better and harder to beat. It is a rule made to restrict the competition. (NT) -- Strive to be better or eliminate the competition?, Wed, Jun 13 2018, 10:17:56"
- Just another stupid CLRG rule. If you have an Australian passport than you should be able to compete at your Nationals, shouldn't matter what school you're at. Those who say they shouldn't be allowed are usually the first one's to cry when their daughter is given such an opportunity to live and train overseas. (NT) -- The more Aussies at Nationals the better the competition, Wed, Jun 13 2018, 10:06:42"
  - Lots of Australian schools seem to be associated / twinned with UK and Irish schools, so can the dancer be registered with their Aussie School and train in Ireland under Association ? Is that how it works ? Also I guess if the dancer is living in Australia for more than 50% of the year, they reside in Australia. Plus they may be overseas on a visitor visa so do not live there.. (NT) -- Legally, Wed, Jun 13 2018, 10:34:33"
- What aussies won’t make it back for the nationals -- Just curious, Thu, Jun 14 2018, 20:12:08"
- So what if a dancer lives here but their teacher lives overseas? (NT) -- Xxx, Mon, Jun 18 2018, 9:21:48"
  - The teacher must be available regularly to teach here, if not who is teaching the dancer ? If its a non TCRG stand in , then they should not be dancing in local competitions. Local schools could join up with overseas schools - didn't Creer do that recently ? (NT) -- No Idea really., Mon, Jun 18 2018, 16:31:38"
  - The teacher would need to be registered with the state branch and national branch. It would be a rare situation that they would be registered in Aus. if living elsewhere. (NT) -- -, Mon, Jun 18 2018, 19:52:18"
- Dancers have to qualify in their country of residence , according to clrg. Not country of their teacher. (NT) -- Sbc, Mon, Jun 18 2018, 21:18:33"
  - And according to the Australian Government, you are resident if you have spent more than 6 months per year in Australia. (NT) -- For Tax Purposes, not sure about AIDA., Tue, Jun 19 2018, 10:14:29"

Alleged ‘Re-styling’ Ban -- Curious, Tue, May 29 2018, 2:11:18"
Can anyone explain the difference between the 6 month so called ‘restyling’ ban for dancers changing schools (therefore unable to compete etc etc) against there being no ‘restyling’ ban on dancers when a school closes or splits?
Surely if it’s a supposed ‘restyling’ reason it shouldn’t matter if the dancer leaves a school of their own accord or the school closes. It seems somewhat one sided.
Asking for a friend.

- Haha yes, they can spin it however they like by giving it a passive name, but we all know that it is a ban designed solely to discourage people from moving schools and a punishment when you do. We had no ban in ACT the whole time my dd danced and I believe there was no ban in QLD either and it worked fine, never a problem and the TC gave to go ahead to feis when they thought a dancer was ready. TC can do whatever they like with the knowledge that no matter how badly they treat you, if you leave it's you who suffers, not them. It's a punishment and (NT) -- nothing more, Tue, May 29 2018, 9:41:12"

Law: its not a ban or restyling period but a Prohibition of Service (in my opinion) AIDA/CLRG & its members (teachers/businesses) collude to exclude the child from AIDA/CLRG competitions for 6 months; notwithstanding the child having 1) formally registered with AIDA/CLRG & 2) paid the annual fee in order to compete in AIDA/CLRG feis for the calendar year. CLRG/AIDA don't even issue pro rata refunds (NT) -- of the reg.fee for the prohibition of service period *they* impose & no mention of any of these 'consequences' of moving to another school (within the same org, mind you) on the registration.form!, Wed, May 30 2018, 2:19:10"
  - Agreed. Some teachers use this to their advantage, and bully away fully well knowing a committed dancer can’t leave lest they forgo comps. It’s exceptionally one sided. (NT) -- OP, Fri, Jun 01 2018, 13:04:52"
- Though isn't it if you move a far enough distance away, there is no ban? (NT) -- Only local? Or did I dream that?, Tue, May 29 2018, 10:29:24"
  - There was a "significant distance" rule that meant no ban if you moved far enough away, not sure if that's still a rule or not. As the OP said, it is ridiculous that if your school closes and you get a free transfer to a new school, there is no ban, so how do those dancers not need "restyling" but others who move schools do? So silly. (NT) -- -, Tue, May 29 2018, 13:01:23"
  - Rules state over 50kms no ban is to be imposed but they still impose a ban even if you do and we know this for a fact. (NT) -- DM, Tue, May 29 2018, 19:56:37"
- Regardless of the name, dancers who change schools out of choice know the rules and have transferred anyway. (NT) -- If you leave at the end of nationals, you won't miss any Australian comps., Tue, May 29 2018, 15:05:16"
- My daughter's school closed down so she had no choice but to change schools, so why should she be penalised. In other circumstances you have a choice. (NT) -- Mum, Tue, May 29 2018, 15:38:01"
  - You don't always have a choice, schools change, different people arrive, TC attitude changes, kids get bullied by other dancers, class timetable changes making it impossible to attend, should those dancers be punished? No, your daughter should not be penalised because her school closed down, no dancer should be penalised because they want to go to a different school. Where else in life are you penalised for changing a service provider? Imagine if you wanted to change from Telstra to Optus but the penalty was changing ISP means you have to go 6 months on dial up speed.. ridiculous, yes? (NT) -- -, Tue, May 29 2018, 16:02:41"
  - If her school closed down then you should have been notified of a one month free transfer to a new school without penalty (NT) -- Check with your state head if that's the case, Wed, May 30 2018, 1:55:50"
- Explain why Trad Sets can't be danced - no restyling needed there. What kind of black hearted souls punish small children for their parents' consumer choices? (NT) -- Oh wait, they would be the same black hearted souls that enjoy using this ban as leverage over chiildren who just want to keep going to the feis..., Wed, May 30 2018, 1:44:19"
- Does a ban help to prevent poaching? (NT) -- Another perspective, Wed, May 30 2018, 1:58:37"
  - Its Irish Dancing, not professional football or the like! (NT) -- And even then...no ban!, Wed, May 30 2018, 2:20:16"
  - And once again, why should a child be punished for this? If anyone should be punished it should be the person doing the poaching. When there was no ban in ACT there were almost no transfers between schools, I can think of three, maybe four in 15 years. People don't take transferring lightly, there has to be something seriously wrong for this to happen so why would a TC want to keep a seriously unhappy family in their school anyway? is it not better for everyone, family and TC, if they move on? It's just spiteful to punish the child stuck in the middle. (NT) -- -, Wed, May 30 2018, 8:59:19"
    - Sometimes though there really is not something seriously wrong and people just like to change. I have no set opinion on any of this but looking to the other side.....when a teacher puts blood, sweat and tears into a child and then from nowhere with out any notice they transfer just because they want a change, it can be very disheartening. In some states like NSW, Melbourne etc there are lots of different schools and choices to move between. ACT is very small in comparison. (NT) -- Just another thought. Every situation is different so one set opinion on this does not really sit right., Wed, May 30 2018, 9:24:46"
      - And sometimes “teachers” who have nothing to do with students, don’t attend classes and show no interest in competition or results, are surprised when students leave. If the teacher is not committed to their own dancing school and then why should anyone else be! (NT) -- DM, Wed, May 30 2018, 10:15:57"
      - The ban is silly beyond words & no amount of semantics/mental gymnastics could come up with a scenario that justifies an organisation like CLRG/AIDA banning children from competing for simply moving to another dance school. (NT) -- 6 months is longer than many professional athletes doping or cheating bans. Gross overreach and just plain ugly of them to target the kids in order to nurse the bruised egos of teachers/businesses., Wed, May 30 2018, 11:09:29"
- Outdated and archaic practices for what is essentially and predominantly a children's sport. One which is meant to be fun for them but is filled with more politicos than many other sports and dance forms. Change needs to occur but it won't as those that can change it don't want to as it covers and protects their own ar*es and ultimately that is all they care about. (NT) -- DM, Wed, May 30 2018, 12:27:28"
- I am a dancer and requested my parents allow me to transfer. My previous tcrg was clearly not interested in me. She had a champion. She thought we were stupid enough to think she cared. She clearly did not. I was glad of the restyling period. It gave me time to settle, focus on new teaching styles and new material. I have the most beautiful relationship with my new tcrg and I am a different dancer. Can not wait for the next part of this journey. (NT) -- Happy Dancer!, Wed, May 30 2018, 13:28:59"
  - How beautiful - good luck to you. I hope you do well. (NT) -- Long time dance mum., Thu, May 31 2018, 15:59:38"
- It's to discourage studio hopping; however, it's a welcome period as it gives the dancer time to settle in, learn new steps, make friends and become part of their new school. (NT) -- long timer, Thu, May 31 2018, 11:47:20"
  - They can settle in, learn new steps, make friends and become part of their new school by going to comps. (NT) -- X, Tue, Jun 05 2018, 15:13:47"
- The down side is that schools are stuck with families who are no longer committed to the school and causing havoc but won't leave because they don't want to miss state/nationals. (NT) -- wud be best for everyone if they cud just go, Thu, May 31 2018, 12:28:46"
  - I don't think that either teachers or families are particularly trapped. Teachers can reject students and families can walk. I support a discouragement of school hopping but also think 6 months is too long in our short Australian season. I don't think it is fair for a student to jump from one school to another and then compete at states a week later on behalf of the new school. But I do think that a shorter period of maybe 3 months would be a more reasonable transition time. (NT) -- DM, Sun, Jun 03 2018, 2:33:41"
    - As long as the dancer isn't dancing the former school's proprietary choreography it shouldn't matter. If it's a restyling ban why should the children be barred from competing in trad sets or dances which their former teacher never taught them in the first place. (NT) -- What benefit is there to the longevity of Irish Dancing in barring little grades dancers from the stage?, Sun, Jun 03 2018, 14:21:09"
- I don’t think many go that. People don’t stay when they are not happy with the service or whatever is making them leave. Nott just to do Nationals. There is an appropriate time to leave and nit be affected. (NT) -- DM, Thu, May 31 2018, 15:58:24"
  - What about worlds tho (NT) -- ///, Fri, Jun 01 2018, 16:42:42"
- One Senior dancer just moves states instead of schools THREE TIMES (NT) -- that is committment, Thu, May 31 2018, 21:07:34"
  - That's a great way to beat the ban. Good on them ! You could also tell AIDA that you have moved to another suburb 50km away and use a friends address on the rego forms ! (NT) -- Find the loophole., Fri, Jun 01 2018, 10:49:57"
- I think the senior dancer you may be referring to moved states due to life / work circumstances, not to avoid a re-styling ban. (NT) -- Parent., Mon, Jun 04 2018, 18:54:28"

- Really disappointed with the prizes for this year, medals were tiny and no indication what they were for unlike the ones in the past and no wave trophies just a piece of painted tin for the belt sections, we have competed every year since it began but never again for the price of this competition this was sad (NT) -- Dd&dm, Sun, May 27 2018, 22:37:09"
  - So you enter competitions according to the quality of the prizes rather than having your daughter compete? Maybe they should give out 18carat gold medals like at the Olympics. I was at this comp. with my daughter when it first started and got to speak to the man that did the hand blowned glass trophy they use to give out.

    - I cannot apologise enough for those people that missed out on the T-Shirt on the day, we are working very hard to get these out to those dancers as a priority. It was not a matter of running out of sizes as we do specifically order based on the entries, however, one of the boxes in the T-Shirt delivery got lost in transit to us :( We appreciate your understanding and can assure you we were equally as disappointed about this unfortunate circumstance as the dancers. -- Jared - The Pacific Belt, Tue, May 29 2018, 1:11:22"

NSW needs some new Adjudicators. Just got the latest entry form and it has nother judge we've danced infront of this year. Thats multiple compeitions in NSW that are using judges who have already judge in NSW this year. Do we have a judge shortage? are competitions not profitable enough to get a judge from interstate?

Censorship and comments -- DM, Fri, May 18 2018, 12:12:56"
Moderator, there's too much censorship here!! Either this is a message board or a discussion board. Agree completely about personal opinions that name dancers specifically, however opinions that promote discussion, without directly naming (offending or anything derogatory) individuals and/or their schools and teachers, should be welcomed. Just my opinion!! I'm all for celebrating the beautiful dancers and dancing that we see in Australia, but comments should also reflect the diversity of opinion as viewed by dancing families. Most is overwhelmingly positive, but there should be the opportunity to discuss, respectfully, areas that need improvement, with positive suggestions.

      - No not the person censored or the person who started this post. Just fed up with people not being allowed to have different opinions. You were rude and dismissive to the original poster when you said this post isnt even needed and then implying they aren't sensible.
