Try taking glucosamine supplements which include chrodroitin-they work wonders, but they have to contain chrodroitin to work so that the glucosamine is absorbed

nice slip jig !!! and as the others told you, jump higher !!! and don't know if it's because of the video but try to move on especially in the lead aroud, it's seems so "small" you see, but i think that if you goes higher you may move more too !!

I have finally finished (well almost)!

I have handed in my last essay for University-wohoo it feels such a relief. I now have one exam at the end of May and then I am free :) I am looking forward to being a graduate and starting dance school soon. I also hope to attend the dance summer camp in Austria (providing I save enough money).

Hi Fi !!
I have different ages groups. When i'm alone, i have people betwenn 16 to more than 50 but most of my sutdents are about my age (around 25). But i'm also teaching with in another place and we have younger people, the yougest girl is 6. there's 6 children betwern 6 and 10, then 3 teenagers (must be 13 or something like that, i'm not sure) and then adults but just 5 of them. Yeah, it's a very good experience !!! Sarah came last week-end, and i was anable to walk properly for about 2 days :s but we really work well and it'll be useful !! for the feisanna, don't have anyone soon but really wish to do one (can't because i haven't enough time to go nor money to spend theses times) but i really wish i'd go in less than a year !! and you ?? hope you have a nice week !!! see u soon !!

Hi, I'm great thanks. Yes I love our over drills! Our stamina drills are a lot of fun too, the five year old in the class always lasts the longest though.:)How's dance for you?

Hello Fi
I almost forget to send a message with my results from Vienna :)
Sooooooo, Vienna was great!!!! I was first in primary traditional set an second in intermediate reel and heavy jig!!! It is absolutely much more than I had expected. I can`t believe it. May be my new dress brought me good luck :)
And what about your form? Has it its previous efficiency :)
