Claire Greaney – interview

1. First of all I would like to congratulate you on your victory at the last World championships in Philadelphia in category Ladies 18-19. You went to defend your success and confirm your quality from All Ireland championship this year. What were your feelings when you went to USA? Would you admit the possibility, you might not win?

You can never go and expect to win. Of you expect to win, there is no point in even being in dancing anymore because the excitement and nerves are gone but if you don‘t believe you can do it, it’s never going to happen either. Going over to the worlds, because I was returning to retain my world title and had the all-Ireland title, the pressure is a little more intense because everybody is expecting you to be the best, naturally you don’t want to disappoint. I was exited because it was in America and I knew that I had worked hard and knew I had a chance but was extremely nervous because anything can happen on the say and you may just be unlucky. It‘s good to have nerves though because they give you that little bit of adrenaline boost.
