Colleen Rintamaki ~ 10 Time World Champion in Highland Dancing! (( Nikita's Dance Teacher! ))

[greenXghoti]

in highland dance competition, the women&girls wear their hair up because that is the current standard appearance the judges want, but that really doesn't have a thing to do with the style of dance!

[funkyprincess014]

Maybe it is just her feet doing the highland dancing but i have no clue about her arms and + her hair is down highland dancers have their hair up not down.

[mollymonkey1820]

[Ahipararox]

is this person or her teacher a new zealander

[TrebleTrouble]

What a refreshingly well choreographed, entertaining, technical, brilliant peice of highland dancing!

Really enjoyed it!

[Ahipararox]

....

[sweethart50]

What tune is this? That is an awesome dance!

[kristanmmm]

I said it reminds me of irish with HIGHLAND moves... meaning that she does alot of different HIGHLAND moves without repeating the same thing over and over like traditional highland (shedding, pdbs... etc...) which is similar in style to irish dance because there is not alot of repetition in irish relative to scottish dancing....

[williamswhistlepipes]

thats great dancing must take a lot of practice.

[Becko78]

Wow!!!! I wish my daughter had her for a teacher.....she can dance!!!!!

[eilianu]

What song is this? I know I've heard it before.

[MissMatched039]

I agree with banalina. I'm an Irish Dancer and it's completely different than Irish Dance. A huge portion of these steps will never be in any Irish dance.

[kristanmmm]

This very much reminds me of irish dancing except with more highland moves...

[banalina902]

Reminds you of ID? This dance is 95% Highland Dance. Most of the steps were a mix of Hornpipe and Jig, some Village Maid, and a whole Barracks step at the end, plus a whole bunch of other stuff. The rocks and entrachats (butterflys) are all highland!

[DancerAlisha]

wow amazing dancer :)

[poons54]

Absolutely brilliant Colleen x
