well done will you answer me a couple of questions please

1)am i to old to start just turned 15 last month and have become interested(oh and by the way i have 2 and a half years of tap and ballet under my belt.)

2)do i have to compete or can you just do exams like in other dance forms

thnx in advance

[reelprincess2608]

you're never too old to start it however it may impact your results in competition as the people with whom you'd compete would have a bit more experience. but if you're just looking to learn it for the sake of learning it and having fun, there is not "too old."

im not entirely sure what an "exam" is lol. there are many people who i know who just dance at class, never compete and just keep learning new steps if that's what yo mean. if you can provide me with an explanation of "exams" i coud help

About the wigs. I'm 17 and have been Irish Dancing ince i was 4 and a half. to this day i don't know why, but down here in New Zealand we wear them too. We have the option not to in figure dancing but in solos im pretty sure they are compulsary. Yes they are a hassle, but if you're like me and have dead straight hair down to your tail bone (that was when i was younger, i've cut it now) its alot easier to put a wig on than do it up in curlers! =]

@xOXoxClarabellexOXox I Irish Danced as well, but I live in the USA and I never understood the Whig thing either, I thought I had to wear it because I was told too.lol I am now in college though, and have an Irish Dance Team, and being one of the captains we decided we didn't want whigs, we thought they were silly and a hassle. Plus I have naturally curly and "normal" looking hair anyway, so why alter it? I honestly don't know.

[xOXoxClarabellexOXox]

Woah your really good. I started irish dancing when I was 5. I live in Ireland so that was normal. What I dont get is why do you wear wigs? I was at loads of competions and I never once saw a wig in Ireland! It just annoys me that people wear wigs when the traditional Irish Dancers never wore wigs. And we dont have hair like that for the record:P
