THE CAPTAIN'S CAPER Scottish Reel

A video tutorial for the 'Captain's Caper' as performed at Pont Street by some London Reels enthusiasts in September 2023. This delightful dance was created to celebrate the centenary of the Skye Balls in 1979, and it has continued to feature on the dance card at every Ball since.
Until now there has been very little in the way of video tutorials or crib sheet diagrams by which to learn the dance, so here's hoping this video might help with any last minute revision by those lucky enough to be invited to the Balls :-)
A huge thanks to all involved in the tutorial, and especially to Mairi Mackinnon for the music.
Teaching & video by John Carver - any questions to [e-mail]. Enjoy!
