STEP DANCING AND MORE ...



Dance historian, Heather Blasdale-Clarke recently gave a presentation on Australian step dancing at the Stepping On Conference at Cecil Sharp House in London.

Heather has also produced a related video which has now been uploaded to Youtube.

But wait, there's more! Heather has a post about eighteenth-century dance in London, complete with music and instructions, and a link with Captain Cook, on the wonderful Spitalfields Life blog.

And it gets even better for dancers - watch out for our upcoming post on traditional dance in Australia …

I'm working on a larger project to explore the music and dances associated with Captain Cook. We're developing it for use in primary schools, too. https://www.colonialdance.com.au/celebrating-cook
Thanks for sharing!
Cheers,
