Shift to Video
P A G E 6 No Classes? Shift To Video by Harold & Meredith Sears We can't go to our usual dance clubs and classes these days, but I'm keeping my hand in (or is it my foot?) with videos from YouTube and from other collections around the Web. I'll list some links below, but a simple search on the name of a rhythm, or of a specific dance figure, will turn up sites and additional links galore. Start with "waltz," "waltz telemark," "waltz styling," or "waltz four walls," and follow the links. You can easily spend a full evening and almost feel like you've been to a lesson and dance. One category of video presents showcase dances. We get to see the whole dance, from beginning to end, with- out any comment. The ballroom dancers will dance without cues. Round dancers will usually have the recorded cues. Either way, we can enjoy the big picture, the posture, the dance frame, body lines, and smooth body flow (and the music). More specifically, we can recognize some of the figures being danced. Watching figures that we know might reveal some features or details that we'd like to copy, improvements that we can make. Watching figures that we don't know can get us started toward knowing them. We often work on those sorts of details in the kitchen, our first steps toward smoother dancing. The other big category of video presents dance instruction. Here, the teachers are not presenting a dance; they are discussing and demonstrating specific steps, figures, and techniques used in dance. -

The History of Square Dance
The History of Square Dance Swing your partner and do-si-do—November 29 is Square Dance Day in the United States. Didn’t know this folksy form of entertainment had a holiday all its own? Then it’s probably time you learned a few things about square dancing, a tradition that blossomed in the United States but has roots that stretch back to 15th-century Europe. Square dance aficionados trace the activity back to several European ancestors. In England around 1600, teams of six trained performers—all male, for propriety’s sake, and wearing bells for extra oomph—began presenting choreographed sequences known as the morris dance. This fad is thought to have inspired English country dance, in which couples lined up on village greens to practice weaving, circling and swinging moves reminiscent of modern-day square dancing. Over on the continent, meanwhile, 18th- century French couples were arranging themselves in squares for social dances such as the quadrille and the cotillion. Folk dances in Scotland, Scandinavia and Spain are also thought to have influenced square dancing. When Europeans began settling England’s 13 North American colonies, they brought both folk and popular dance traditions with them. French dancing styles in particular came into favor in the years following the American Revolution, when many former colonists snubbed all things British. A number of the terms used in modern square dancing come from France, including “promenade,” “allemande” and the indispensable “do-si-do”—a corruption of “dos-à-dos,” meaning “back-to-back.” As the United States grew and diversified, new generations stopped practicing the social dances their grandparents had enjoyed across the Atlantic. -
