Dancing our ghillies off!

 A ghillie is of course an Irish or Scottish dance shoe. They look like this;
They normally come in black but Ive seen them in tan...mine! LOL! By the time this evening comes our family will have danced 6 of the last 7 day! We've had lots of practices, a demo and last night attended a Scottish Ball ! We have really been having a lot of fun!
I have come to believe that SCD is far more profitable than just exercise, because dancing; you get more exercise than you want yet you are learning an art at the same time. As well, for us it is a way to celebrate our heritage! It takes a LOT of stamina to dance certain dances, especially when they last for several minutes. So the next time you want to get in shape, try out some SCD! I always say it but I hope to get some video this year! Patient people keep asking! Sorry I'm so slow and thanks so much for
your interest! We will post pictures of the Ball soon, Lord willing:)

Currently we buy them online from Discount Dance Supply. They are called 'Irish Steppers' or 'Dance Ghillies'...they go by a few names! They are around 27$ right now. The shipping is a bit high....13$! So we order enough pairs at a time so we can get free shipping.
