Highland Fling Scottish Highland Dance competition during 2022 Kenmore Highland Games in Scotland

Competitors in the Highland Fling Scottish Highland dance during the 2022 Kenmore Highland Games. These are held by Loch Tay at Kenmore in Perthshire, one of the only evening Highland Games in Scotland.

The Highland Fling is one of the most famous Scottish dances performed at competitions and championships throughout the world. It is said to have been inspired by the sight of a stag jumping around a hillside. The dancers movements; the arms held aloft like antlers, the feet dancing from side to side, the body turning around, all suggest the stag's playing.

As a former professional athlete, I can tell that this dance style is physically extremely demanding. They are executing the choreography to perfection, and do that with a smile on their face.

What a beautiful video- the amazing dancers, the beautiful music, and the hill in the background. They are a perfect combination.

Lovely Scottish dancing, nice bagpipes. Ruined by unnecessary commentary, costing a like. In this case subtitles would have been better.

Not as impressive as the Irish step dancing a la Riverdance, but still love it. Oh, and the music! I could listen to that all day!

Lol, Irish are fast little leprechauns, scots are strong goofy looking and just bounding along
