Tulloch Turn

The Tulloch turn is a two-handed Turn which was originally prescribed for all turns in Reel of Tulloch but has fortunately fallen into abeyance; see Tulloch Turn Grip in Hand Positions pages.

For example, here are some Scottish Country Dances in which the term, Tulloch turn, is used in either the Minicrib or the Maxicrib Dance instructions or both -
