Dance Video The Gates of Edinburgh (Video 3)
RSCDS Edinburgh Dancing Forth 2009
Three times as the last part of a longer demo. There are a few minor adaptations for demonstration purposes. The 1st repeat ends with a slow RH cross instead of full RH turns to switch the top and bottom of the set, the 2nd repeat has some diagonal turns, the last repeat ends facing the audience. Clear view from above.
As is traditional in Edinburgh, the two hand turns are here done with skip change rather than pas de basque.
