Is that an eightsome reel?

I love Scottish country dancing at a ceilidh. Best when only two people in your set know what they are doing and direct everyone where to go. It’s the epitome of community. And so much fun. What a great way to make international friends across cultures.
A truly life affirming multi-cultural event in Glasgow yesterday organised by the #GlasgowEuropeanCitizensForum featuring Ukrainian, Italian, Irish Polish, Breton dancers

No that was part of the Ukrainian contribution to the event, as you can see from the young Irish dancers - they picked up the steps with ease, there is much crossover in European traditions.

This clip is from the Breton set - Polish, Irish, Scottish, Italian, Ukrainian dancers are all taking part

"This year’s Pomegranates Festival was superb - the mask-centred theme gave it a special dynamic and coherence, utilising diverse traditional dance forms, as well as to the workshops, debates and the performance pieces. It was simply the best Pomegranates yet!"
