Oklahoma ScotFest 2012

This past weekend Laura and Lauren danced at Oklahoma ScotFest, joined by retired dancer/teacher Norah Dunbar and five-year-old Alora, and it was a blast!

The ladies performed traditional Highland and National dances - but with a few twists! Laura and Lauren showed off modified versions of Sailor's Hornpipe and Scottish Version of the Irish Jig and entertained audiences with dances performed to Celtic rock music, including songs by Wicked Tinkers and Red Hot Chilli Pipers. Audiences were especially wowed by a fun and fast finale - a slightly non-traditional Highland Fling set to a RHCP medley of "Smoke on the Water" and "Thunderstruck!"


Lauren recently learned the Hornpipe. Doesn't she look fantastic? :)
