Highland Dance


If you didn't know I dance. Miranda and I are in the same dance class and its great having my friend in my class because then we can dance all the time- at school and anywhere else. This is my seventh year in Highland Dance and I still love it as much as I did when I started!

Highland dance is not river dance. Its Scottish dance. We get to dance over swords and we wear kilts. Its so fun!
Many of the dances are about being strong but some are also about being graceful. In Highland Dance there are many techniques that you need to perfect and I still haven't perfected all of them. I know eight dances and they all in time from about 2-4 minutes.

Miranda and I also compete. The competitions are so fun and we try to go to as many as we can.
This summer I ended up getting two fifths and a fourth. Miranda got her first stamp which was great since you have to get a third and that's what she got!

I plan to dance for at least two more years.
