Brush

This video is part of an online video glossary of basic movements for traditional Scottish soft-shoe step dancing. The glossary is based on descriptions published in the St. Andrew&Collection of Step Dances (RSCDS 2009-2013). Voice-over is provided by the book&editor and RSCDS examiner Helen Russell (Scotland). Brush (a single beat movement) is performed here by Valentina Burtseva, associate UKA, a Scottish step dance teacher at Shady Glen (Moscow, Russia). Please note that the height of the working foot in 4th aerial position depends on a particular dance, its music and character.
