This is formal Scottish Country Dance. It bears about as much resemble to authentic Ceildh dancing as competion Ballroom Cha Cha does to night club Salsa.
Type in 'Scottish Wedding Ceidlh' to see the real thing - or try to imagine the above dancers doing the above with a 6 pack (girls included) inside them :-)
No kidding... I am attending a Ceilidh this Friday and am working on dancing 'The Shepards Crook' - a combination highland and scottish country dance with one man and two women.
c'est superbe vraiment !! je souhaiterai tellement assister à une aussi belle manifestation !! en attendant je vais faire travailler une danse comme cell-ci à mes élèves violonistes et moi bien sûr je vais jouer aussi !! c'est vraiment délicieux je ne vais pas manquer cela !! - merci
Just love Scottish Country Dancing brings back lovely memories of all the auld dances we were taught coming through Public School in Saltcoats. Our teachers were the best
Poor tone on the music, both fiddle and accordion, compared to other videos using same headphones.
There seems little lift in both the music and dancers responses.
My only other comment is how BLACK all the clothing appears. When I was younger it seemed very white - I guess that's fashion and changing with the times!
I wonder what my PE teacher, Jock Ireland would have said!
am i the only person here whose Scottish not american? lol anyways much respect to those accross the pond.

Maybe it is slow and the skip and timing isn't that great but I wish I could do the same. Love it.

Believe me, if a nerdy engineer like me can do it, anyone should be able to.
