I came across another Irish dance themed blog all about being in shape for feis. Now if you're not an Irish dancer, the word "feis" is probably one you've never heard before. The word "feis" is Celtic and refers to Irish dance competitions and is pronounced "fesh".
Jeanne, creator of the Are You Feis Fit blog (you can find it here) posts about nutrition and work outs for dancers training for a feis.
One specific post talks about Seven Simple Nutrition Guidelines for Irish Dancers. You can find it here!
What I found most important about this specific post was that the very first guideline was to make sure dancers knew that this was not a "do or die" list and that they should listen to their bodies to learn what is best for them. I also liked the specificity of the second guideline that provided an entire meal plan for dancers to use to their advantage in their training.
These guidelines were perfect for Irish dancers who may be a little lost in navigating diets that might help them in their dancing. I am excited to see what Jeanne posts next!
