Up to this point we have done dances with just skip change of step<\/a> or the slipping step<\/a>. This week we will start teaching a new step – Pas De Basque<\/a>. We will start out slow and try to bring the step up to speed.<\/p>\n

We will also review figures learned last week. The Findlay’s Jig has an Allemande for three couples<\/a>. Last week we did the Allemande for two couples<\/a>. There are subtle differences but they are essentially the same. If time permits we will repeat Ecclefechan Feline from last week. <\/p>\n

Here are the instructions for the dances we plan to cover this week.<\/p>\n
