2022-05-04 Clare Lancers Set

Wednesday, May 4 @ 6:15-8:15pm,16 NW 7th Avenue, Gainesville, FL

This week we gave our performance set figures a break and Piper introduced us to the classic Clare Lancers Set. We also worked on some foundation skills and drills (basic reel steps, a jig step from Priest, shuffling, getting our bounce on, clarity of sound, musicality). And Maggie Pickie fundamental steps!
