Video Project

The project this month was the Schottische - a simple couple dance that you can add your own variations to. Jake and Anna teach the Schottische with music from Alan Brunier.

You can dance to the Schottische Demo video, or download an MP3 audio file of some Schottische music in case you want to dance where there is not enough Internet to play the video.

We made a composite Schottische video to show on the night. Here are some of the contributions sent in from around the world: Schottische contributions gallery

Event Videos

We made 14 videos for this dance! You will find them all on the London Barndance November 2020 playlist

The Schottische composite has turned out to be the most popular video that we have yet made, getting 600 views in the two weeks following the event.
