*I have seen Tamsin deliberately lose her partner who she has decided she didn’t like in the middle of an Eightsome reel. When the dance floor is full and dance partners are changing continuously it is the easiest thing in the world to lose one's partner, then the dance descends into full disarray and that is what Tamsin takes advantage of* *Her partner finding they are standing outside the toilets desperately searching for her while she has paired off with someone else*
*I’ve even seen people wandering around the car park looking for her, or questioning people giving a brief description of her, like distinguishing marks,moles and stuff* *She is terrible like that. Four different partners during an Eightsome reel are too silly for words*
As a Scottish Dancer I find this extraordinary! Its certainly nothing like the true Scottish dance.
I know! agreed.
Really brilliant tutorial and love the supertitled instructions!
Great John, thank you! Just about to teach this to a group of school children in Samoa
they really had fun in the middle sections, love that, i didn't know you could bust it down like that, we never had that at our classes
Interesting how the couples are numbered going to the left instead of to the right. Also, HOW does set work?
live your life like headband guy.
Great Instructions!
They dance like Englishmen! 😂

Who's Tamsin?
what they lack in style they have in uncontrolled abandon. I prefer to see a little more care from the males to their partners.
Agreed...the stocky guy in the white shirt personifies "oaf."
