    Oooohhhh how I've watched this clip ... over and over and over ..... Jacob is a 'Mega Superstar' .... ! So enthusiastic and dedication from the heart .. ! I bet he's the best dancer in the region .. The little girl, next to him was very brave .. ! Abs brilliant ... ! 👏💗👏💗👏

    Oh I remember mine at Balloch Highland games. I was about the same age. Jacob you will love your training. Listen and practice every day. Practice your feet and pointing from the heel, you are doing great! I didn't quite get to World Champion but I was a Scots Champion many times over. Practice class four times a week as long as you enjoy it and then competition on Saturday, once you are older. My best friend and rival was a boy Douglas Benson. He always was very had to beat! He always had a girlfriend as you will! To all parents split the Highland with Ballet lessons. Ballet gives you core strength and works on that elevation and foot and shoulder control. Vital. Have fun and make friends.

      I didn't think you could give "thumbs down " any more. Maybe some people are doing it by a accident. I know I did and quickly switched it to "thumbs up ".

    @wahnemahardin4417 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Jacob sure knew his steps. My little boy 35 years ago (yikes) stood out when he danced also. The girls would watch him to know what they were suppose to be doing. Jacob had a girl too.

    スコットランドのハイランドダンスを小さい子供たちが伝統音楽として習っているのは良い。アイルランドのリバーダンスと匹敵する程の伝統を感じる。日本ではさしずめ能楽や歌舞伎と言いたい所だが、やる人は家元じゃないとなかなか教えてはくれない。習う人は真面目にやらないといけない。しかしこのハイランドダンスは一般の人であっても先祖代々の伝統を受け継ぐものがあって誇りがあって良い。

    They were all adorable. I felt a tad sorry for the taller girl to the left of Jacob as he did really great side steps and got half in front of her a lot! It was cute though! They all did a great job!! I heard the surname ‘MacFarland’ of two lassies. My mother was a MacFarland. ❤❤❤
