Then the nerves kick in…..
Dance exams....a necessary part of dancing and working your way through the grades. Two years on average is spent per grade learning steps, developing shape, developing technique, developing movement, developing the dancer as a whole package and to be examined throughout that time ensures the dancer is up to standard for their grade. The … Continue reading Then the nerves kick in…..
A letter to my younger ‘Dancing’ self
Dear Me! I'm now 35 and you're only 27. Looking to start dancing again, seeing it on the TV watching Strictly and wondering what you would be like now if you would have carried on dancing as a 7 year old in Manchester! 20 years later and as an adult it's almost more daunting to … Continue reading A letter to my younger ‘Dancing’ self

Dance competition makeup
I would say that I'm in a decent routine now and apply my makeup for competition days in pretty much the same way, perhaps varying the eyeshadow colour or using a different mascara but generally this is now my look.

Perhaps in the Summer (which is a longer break), days are busier entertaining the kids, working and generally just trying to get out and about so the time passes quite quickly enjoying the sunny days whilst they … Continue reading Woohoo! Back to dancing!
2016…A Review, with a few hours to go!
2016...another year which has flown by. I think the older you get, the faster time flies, add children into that mix and it flies even faster watching them grow from babies to toddlers to little people and now to pre-teen and teen as I'm currently experiencing with my boys reaching 11 and 13...no idea where … Continue reading 2016…A Review, with a few hours to go!
#MAKEUPMUSTHAVESCHALLENGE DAY 16
What's in my beauty bag?? In honesty...I don't have a 'beauty bag' that I carry with me day to day. On a night out, I'd take a powder and my lipstick in my handbag but that's about it. There is a time however when I have a massive beauty bag with me.....dance competition day! As … Continue reading #MAKEUPMUSTHAVESCHALLENGE DAY 16
#MAKEUPMUSTHAVESCHALLENGE Day 2
Day 2 - Quote of The Day My favourite quote has to be: This is a general life quote about getting out there and living despite the hard times...to learn how to stop waiting until the tough times pass, they'll pass...to get out there and live or do what you can while it's happening, that can … Continue reading #MAKEUPMUSTHAVESCHALLENGE Day 2
