Highland Dancing

July 9th, 2008 · 3 Comments

just hangin’ around
toes pointed, heels in - 2nd position (i think) In my ~~lighter~~ ~~more energetic~~ younger days, I practiced Scottish dancing. My favorite dance to perform has always been the sword dance*. I never competed but did it for the fun. Even though I no longer practice, I have not been able to give up my ghillies.
* This is not a video of me, but rather a good example of the sword dance. We should all be grateful that I did not post a video of me. Really, really, grateful. :)

What fun! I did ballroom dancing for a little while, and even a little Ceroc at uni - I never had real footwear though!

I too loved highland dancing, and particularly the sword dance - but I don’t have the shoes anymore - might have to rectify that!!
