(She has only been taking classes since March.) We received the complementary copy of your magazine at the feis. We enjoyed it so much that we ordered a subscription. Please consider doing an article in the magazine about the first feis experience. Maybe the article could include information about what to expect, what to bring, even who to ask, etc. Our experience was wonderful and everyone was very helpful but we did feel a bit "feis impared" and feared we would make a mistake. We have limited knowledge of Irish dance but would be willing to help in any way we can. Thanks! PS You might find it interesting that our daughter is adopted from China but considers herself Irish because she loves Irish dance so much. She even wears T-shirts that say something like "Not only I am cute but I am Irish" :)
