Thanks for filming the wonderful dancing.

I really appreciate that the continuing tradition of Morris Dancing is being recorded. Love it.

Wonderful! So lovely to see people keeping up traditions.

New to me. Nice dance but I didn't like the speed up at the end very much😊

Nope. CEROC, Le Jive was and is supposed to be a fun, "Partner dance" where the man leads and the woman dancer follows. There are so very few things Western men and women can do well together or just tolerate each other. Traditional forms of fun partner dancing was one of them. I loved CEROC in Chicago, but the talented teacher Cassie H stopped teaching, now the main activity here in Chicago is to sit on a bar stool , drink beer and watch our professional Chicago sports teams that aren't any good. Wow - how romantic and no fun that is! How about bringing back traditional forms of partner dancing where the man leads and the woman follows. Americans, British, Australians used to be good partner dancers way back in the 1940s and a brief Disco revival in the 1970s. Now Western, American guys can't dance. I don't considered "Twerking" dancing - that's dancing alone which leads to masterba****** , sex alone. No thanks.

Loved watching this dance. Thanks for sharing

I live in East Kent (Ramsgate) and I have never seen this. I guess they hide out in disused carparks.

Splendida ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I attended a dancing holiday in Barcelona many years ago, and John & partner were the BEST teachers without a doubt! I danced together with John and his lovely partner (he was leading both of us) in a disco on one of the nights out. I had never done that before, so he only told me when he saw I was a bit nervous:"don't think, just follow" . It was great! But the next dance he included another lady, yes! 3 of us being led by John.! He was giving me a few tips while dancing... It was just amazing! After, some guy asked me how I managed to do that, and I said I didn't do anything! It was John...The best teacher I've ever had. Thanks! 💜💜💜

Bells and hankies ftw!

The tune is familiar if not the dance. Do you have a name for it?

Awesome, Thank you!

What is the name of the music?

Thank you for keeping English traditions and culture alive in face of increasing efforts to extinguish it.

Lovely demo, John & Karen! I know that tune, but can't remember its name? Can someone help?

❤

Nice tradition, thanks for sharing!

Double trouble basic

Kentish man in NZ , Lovely to see English folk dancing is still going strong

This is wonderful, it’s so nice to see our culture and traditions being upheld in a world where they appear to be rapidly being subsumed by other cultures and traditions not native to England

Oh my goodness me so much to learn but very helpful video I can’t even get the steps right at the moment…I’m also a border dancer so keep stepping in right every time so I’m finding this very helpful thank you. I’ll keep trying and practicing 😊

I love the dancing horse😍

Nice to see people keeping old English traditions alive. Many people think only Scotland, Ireland and Wales have their own distinct cultures.

The rubbish bins in the background do not add to the ambience, but bravo to the intrepid dancers. They are keeping English culture alive.

It just needs a few more hankies and jingly bells but its going in the right direction

Разве можно в церкви плясать? Что-то невообразимое...

Thanks, very nice concise video.

US here. I've been getting more of these performances in my feed and I really enjoy watching them.

Thank you for this video. I’m trying to learn and the ancestors are probably laughing at my goofy uncoordinated self 😂😭

Thanks for putting these together!

Very helpful John. Many thanks for posting. 👍

I did Ceroc here in Chicago ~ 20 years ago I Loved It. Sigh, I never recovered from our talented, but a bit crazy CEROC dance teacher stop doing this. It's the perfect dance. I got OK at Salsa, but CEROC is better for US middle age British guys. Is there any CEROC in the USA? North or South America? Please contact me directly, I'd like to invest my time and $ in spreading this joy. In case people haven't noticed yet, American men and women are not getting along at all - it's never been worse. Partner dancing is beautiful - most girls, women love to partner dance, with American guys... someone is going to have to make them learn to dance. So mothers, sisters, girl friends, sorority leaders - lets make the men around you learn to dance.

Used to seeing mixed Border sides but not seen many Cotswold sides mixed.

What’s the tune ? I know it but can’t remember the name/ words

Love these events! I support them whenever I can! Want to see more of them? Go support them!

Great tutorial. Thanks John....There are no Morris sides where I am from. ( Ireland ) never the less Morris has been my passion for last 20 years..Great to get an insight into the steps ..Cheers Jackdaw 🕊

This has been very helpful, John! Thank you!

Thank you very much

Good to dance this on Sunday and a lot easier than the original Four Winds, thanks John

Neat work. Well done.

Nicely done.

Excellent work, John. I particularly enjoyed the thumbs up in the recovery section!

Very nice choice of music and dance, but why in a desolate parking lot? You Morris dancer deserve a better backdrop than that!

Great! thanks so much for putting these tutorials out John ... much appreciated

Perfect! Thank you!

Fantastic video, just shared with the new recruits with Stafford and Uttoxeter Morris. Many thanks

Such a joyfull song! 😁

I thought it looked great! I liked the Hey in a circle, my team does it in columns.

This is so beautiful! I am trying these flourishes. Thank you!

I've been meaning to find a private instructor to coach me on triples. This is channel is a true find!
