Subject: Is the grass greener over here?

My kids dance for a CLRG school in the U.S. We know all about and are frustrated by the cheating over there, and are considering making the jump to AC. Is the judging more fair over here? Also, there aren't a ton of AC schools in the states, so we're concerned about not having enough feisanna to attend. Any American families have any thoughts on that?

LMAO, based on the lack of responses to my post and all the posts about cheating at feisanna, I suppose the grass is, in fact, not greener over here. (NT) -- OP, Mon, Mar 24 2025, 13:40:05
Only Derry wans on this board no yanks sorry. Try an email instead (NT) -- Derry mam, Mon, Mar 24 2025, 14:32:14
Consider open platform or crdm also (NT) -- My understanding is that in the U.S you AC is open so can compete in loads, Mon, Mar 24 2025, 23:58:37
AC in the states is lovely - a more low key approach to feising with one/month plus you can go to all the open platform feises. People in Ireland made us feel welcome. (NT) -- Judging always feels fair, Tue, Mar 25 2025, 1:07:35
AC Stateside has about 1 Feis a month and you have a choice to attend open platform Feis which there are a lot of. You can be a competitive dancer and not be eaten alive or defeated by the toxic environment of CLRG that we used to be subject to. (NT) -- Made the move and I am so much happier and impressed with the standard over here., Tue, Mar 25 2025, 1:24:23
What state are you in? We just changed from CLRG last year. We like the change (NT) -- Enough feis, Tue, Mar 25 2025, 20:16:48
