While the world may see St. Patrick’s Day as a single day, Irish Dancers and Trad music lovers know it's a season that spans approximately 4–6 weeks.

The St. Patrick’s Day season aligns with the World Championships, making this issue a comprehensive Guide to World-Class Prep. Whether you're a seasoned competitor or just starting out, you'll find invaluable tips and advice to enhance your preparation. Here are a few highlights:

1. Zen Rince shares tips and techniques to manage your stress and support your competitive mindset for Worlds and all dance competitions!
2. Target Training provides an incredible 4-step Warm-up for dancers.  Be sure to check this out as it is something a dance teacher can incorporate into their class OR a dancer can do on competition day to help warm up their muscles before taking the stage.
3. Eire Beauty gives insider tips on Lash Essentials including how to make your eyes look stunning on the big stage.  

Speaking of Worlds, we're excited to present a plethora of results in our Mid-March/April issue for the CLRG' - An Coimisiun's World qualifiers from Ireland, the UK, and other parts of the world (USA, Canada, and Mexico qualifiers appeared in the Mid-Jan/Feb edition).
