Ceilidh Dancing











We did ceilidh dancing on January 11. It is sort of like line dancing in which you line up for some of the dances or get in a circle for others. You always have a partner for these dances. I was the man for most of the dances we did!! There was a live band with an accordion, drums, guitar and singers. If you've ever seen Pride and Prejudice it’s the type of dancing they do at the dances they go to. It’s a lot of twirling and clapping and changing positions with other people. It’s really hard to describe but so much fun!!! Here is a web site that tells you more about the individual dances and tells you how to do them. http://www.scottishdance.net/ceilidh/dances.html
Anyway it was a lot of fun and by then end of 2 hours we were all really tired and hot and sweaty.
