I love Playford dances. So elegant and a good workout for the brain.

[@loganpollock1689]

A wonderful old dance. So hard to get right and so beautiful when done right.

[@thomaskurth8335]

From 1698. This dance appeared until the last edition of Playford (ca.1728). THE classical first dance for many beginners of historical dancing.

I just learned this dance. Nice recording.

They are adorable!

[@ashishkochar]

Yeah

[@darcyissues]

This is by far the best version I have found online, you are so cordinate and delicate, exactly how it should be done! :)

[@bearpuf]

Thanks for your sensitive comment. GCD's demo group was especially attuned to this dance for the unspoken feelings that both the figures and the music were attempting to convey.
