Book Synopsis Scottish Reeling by : David Yarwood

Download or read book Scottish Reeling written by David Yarwood and published by David Yarwood. This book was released on with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only comprehensive Scottish Reeling eBook. This book covers all eleven of the popular reels: Dashing White Sergeant Duke & Duchess of Edinburgh Duke of Perth Eightsome Reel Foursome Reel Hamilton House Inverness Country Dance Machine Without Horses Mairi’s Wedding Postie’s Jig Reel of the 51st Division The free sample offers a good sense of what you'll find inside. Uniquely, three original elements are provided for every dance, simply referenced to each other: A crib, similar to a teacher's instructions; A traditional Scottish dancing style diagram specifically designed for this eBook including things like helicopters, claps, and stamping of feet; and A page of invaluable tips I've gathered dancing and teaching reels for over a decade. There's additional help for those with a Scottish country dancing background who want to learn how reeling differs and a full glossary of terms you may encounter. Original colour figures illustrate: 4 and 6 Set Progressions Corners Reels of 3 (Figures of Eight) Reels of 4 Rights and Lefts There's no single way to learn or teach (or even dance) reels. I reference other resources, like videos, which this book can supplement. My primary focus is helping anyone new to reeling, but experienced dancers may benefit too. I cover how supporting couples can help those dancing. Throughout, I emphasise the fun and social side of reeling, and scarcely mention footwork at all! I first discovered Scottish dancing at primary school. Next were ceilidhs at Edinburgh University, then London evening classes, where I was introduced to reeling. A former London Reels committee member, I've taught there and at other places.

To help broaden reeling's appeal, I am currently translating this eBook into various languages. Please see my author page for the French and German versions. These include a free copy of the English version. I'm working on an Italian translation and would also love to do a Japanese version amongst others.
