November 30, 2020

Tonight we'll be experimenting with devising a dance as a group using selected formations.  We'll use it as an opportunity to talk about how dances are constructed, what makes them work, and what makes them fun...and hopefully have some fun.  We'll also review Fàilte Ball dances on request as time permits.

Check email for details and for Zoom link information or email info [at] rscds-twincities.org.

We're not used to moving our hips much as Scottish country dancers, so get ready to discover some muscles you may have forgotten you have! Branch member and guest instructor Katrina Dam offer a class building on the one offered in November.  A recording of the first class is available for anyone who wants to review before this one (contact info [at] rscds-twincities.org for the link).

Katrina says:  Bellydancing is for all ages and all genders!  Wear loose, comfortable clothing and if possible, find a scarf or sash (tartan optional) to tie around your hips.

A camel may be said to be a horse designed by a committee so let's see what we can create in an evening. We'll use breakout rooms to devise a dance or two in small groups. We can try out the dances next week.

Let's celebrate Burns Night with a dram or two. Settle in with a good scotch (or beverage of choice) for a chat. Stuart will share what he learned about the meaning of Tam o' Shanter when he read it to the class last year, and Fer will sing us one of Scotland's national poet's songs.
