GUEST,guest, leeneia	dance questions (13)	What's a schottische	20 Mar 00
Long ago in this thread, the someone asked "what's a schottische?" A schottische is a dance in 2/4 time. Your feet go: one (step) two three hop one two three hop one hop, two hop, three hop, four hop. While your feet are doing that, you make bigger dance moves such as going forward, going backward, changing places with other couples, whatever, as explained by the caller. The word schottische is German for Scottish. Strangly enough, I have never heard of a Scot doing a schottische, though perhaps they do it and don't want it bruited about.
