Irish Step Dancing?

Question

I was 4 when I started Irish step Dancing. When I was 8, my parents made me quit because I hated to practice and they didn't want to buy a dress for someone who wouldn't practice.

Well last year, I found out that 3 girls in my class irish danced. Thats when I remebered where all my old ribbons and medals and pictures were. I pulled them out and saw my old shoes and CD of practice music. Well I listened to the CD and looked at some old pictures when I realized that I wanted to take it up again.

So now I'm 14 and I want to take it up during High School becasue I want to do a sport and I hate what people consider sports (you know the running around chasing a ball sort of thing) So I asked my parents and we found a school and my mom is suposed to be calling to register me.

what I need to know is since I cant remember alot about the steps, would i need to start on a very beginer level or what? Any information you can give about anything is greatly encouraged.

This is here because the people I know are here.
