Mia Curran On the competition circuit in CLRG it is. White laces in softshoes and white tape on the heavies to lower the visual line at the top of the shoe.
Anush Same here. For us, Scissors is a jump where you launch off one foot and kick out, landing on the opposite foot. I don't know if that was explained clearly, but it's a really simple and fun move, essentially a kick.
The answer depends more on the organization your dance school is affiliated with, and accredited by than where you are located. And also, what your teacher wants. Its up to your teacher to decide if they want their dancers in white laces or not. I personally don't allow my dancers to wear them until they reach a certain level in competition. or unless they are a bit older. White laces take a bit of upkeep. To keep them white you have to take them out of your shoes between performances and competitions and trade them for black laces.
Mine tend to go too wide(side to side motion is very good) but not wrap front to back well enough. What muscle or muscles do I need to strengthen to get the front to back motion to happen?
I used to have that problem too when I was little. I would try strengthening your inner thighs. And then alot of it is just the muscle memory. I would stand holding onto something, and move just one leg really fast from front to back. I remember my "ah ha" moment was when I would stand and picture my feet just changing places behind one another in the air and then my feet would finally cross in the back. I hope this is helpful!

Where I train Irish Dance, those would be called entrechats, we use the term scissors for another move

Thanks for your help! I tried a few reps of some hip adductor exercises and that's definitely a weak muscle for me! I'll keep working on it. 😊
@@lirishd Oh good! Well it sounds like you found the culprit! Good luck!
