Book excerpt: The famed Scottish dance 'The Highland Fling' that gained popularity in the early 19th century, is the subject of this guidebook. Author Horatio N. Grant aims to give a series of exercises to enable even the most novice of dancers to become familiar with the dance steps. The dance is now performed at dance competitions and events around the world. One goal of dancers today is to stay in the same spot throughout the dance. The Highland Fling is danced at almost all competition levels, from primary to premier. It is also performed for Highland and theory examinations. Dancers will usually wear a kilt to perform the dance.
