Hello Patricia,
Thanks for this. You can indeed upload it yourself. Go to page for the dance (https://my.strathspey.org/dd/dance/4325/). In the Overview tab click the “Add” menu (bottom left) and choose “Add Video (from youtube/vimeo)”. That takes you to a little form for adding the youtube URL, optionally adding an offset to the start. You also need to choose a quality (there is some guidance) and optionally add a comment and finally click “Add Video”.

Why not give this a go? In case of problems do get in touch again. Of course some of the editors look at your very active youtube channel from time to time and add new videos themselves. Cheers, Murrough

NB the “Upload video…” option has not been working for a while.
