Performance Of Skip Change Step - Lower Hutt Scottish Country Dance Club, Wellington, New Zealand, 2018.

Video Notes
The Skip Change Step is shown, in jig tempo, with dancers taking hands, as when leading up or down with nearer hands joined, and dancing individually, as when chasing; the final 4 bars show the Step danced backwards.

Video Notes
Viewed from the front and from the rear, the Skip Change Step is shown alternating with Pas-de-basque in successive 2 bar phrases of jig tempo; this combination is especially good for the transition between these Steps.
