Hello everyone, I am from Hong Kong SAR of China. I learned this dance on tonight & learned before. But at the old days I couldn't find any video to watch. Nowadays I can find it from RU-vid. Thanks for your sharing. The teacher's voice & explanation is good.
Hi Geoff. I'm from Bilbao, Basque Country, Spain. I'm an English teacher and I've been teaching this song with this coreography to my pupils. It's been great. It seemed we got into the real West in XIX century. My students and I really enjoyed with this great and useful video. Thank you very much! Just you to know in another part of the world some students and teacher really enjoyed dancing it!
First time I did this dance it was at me with folkdance weekend before 1960. We sleep at a Garrett, big so we made dis dance before we go to sleep. 2 lines with sheet and or other material in between. What I remember well.
Wow this looks so much fun! This kind of looks like a dance that could be in "Vanhojen tanssit" in Finland. It's a bunch of 2nd year high schoolers having their own ball because they are the oldest students at the school when seniors leave to study. We have dances like this but with the ballgowns! It's like prom basically. I'm having mine next month. Yeee!
WHY ARE THEY SO EASY TO TEACH?? I mean, it'd take us more than 10 minutes just to perform the first dance move without making mistakes and our teacher yelling at us
This is a traditional American folk song sung by folksingers and anyone singing campfire songs around the world. Do a quick RU-vid search to find a lot of versions.
This is a song composed by America's most well-known composer, Stephen Foster. You should be able to look up the lyrics online. The words are pretty much nonsensical - after all this is entertainment, and sort of folksy version, at that.
some one could subtitles or write the lyrics the metodology and the theory names I want work this music, dance and for this I have to justify in a essay the principal
