Stilt Dancing
« on: November 10, 2010, 10:43:31 PM »
Well the RR's have a thread on Morris Dancing. That got me thinking. or rather thinking back. More than 30 years!  To a holiday that I spent in their 'area', Sidmouth to be exact. Where I saw my 1st stilt dance. Also saw it go wrong...blood everywhere!!

This sorta stuff



a shorter 'racier' dance

Well yours would be...
"Likes Aidanh1's Like of DC's Like of Aidanh1's comment"

And this could go on for a very long time and would make Facebook a lot less boring :)

this is from a contemporary ballet. at 3:28 you can see Karim Randé who also worked for Cirque du Soleil (on stilts ofcourse).

here's a video of a Hi-Strider showcase he and Brice Durand did at the French Powerbocking Contest in Sarrebourg
