Rockhopper Morris

Our Repertoire

Our members are experienced dancers and musicians all of whom have lives in other morris sides. Although initially we danced anything that we could all quickly learn to perform, we found we needed more of a challenge, so we persuaded Nick Walden and Darrell Hurtt from Hammersmith Morris to teach us the unusual modern tradition of Raglan with its unique triple-step.

Learning such an unique tradition made the rest of our existing broad and eclectic reptoire seem tame, and decided to drop our other dances. We supplemented the documented Raglan dances with several of our own devising.

Recently we've developed our own stick dances, using the same Raglan stepping. So far we've danced "Scottish Diamond", "Golden Triangle" and "Skirmish" out in public.
