Ever since arriving at St. Andrews, the Dance Club has been an ever present and wonderful part of my time at university. This year I’ve had the privilege to lead photoshoots for the dance committee and teams My favourite experience within this has undoubtedly been working with the Highland Fusion Team! Highland Fusion focuses on blending traditional Highland moves with contemporary music, resulting in a funky take on a typically highly regulated style. This year we decided to put a twist on the annual show A Touch of Tartan by theming it. The chosen theme was “Uisce” (meaning water in Gaelic), named after the team’s g winning competition dance “Seonaidh the Wa After some debate on how to safely combine dancing in photos, our Captain decided tha into the sea at Castle Sands was the best opti to time various poses with the ebb and flow (while running away from them myself) ha most insane but fun photoshoot I’ve ev contrasted heavily with the first group photo the team, which was more focused on headsh group poses It was really interesting to focu the strength and poses of the dance style in shoot, and have the chance to play with the w editing show logos and information. This s fantastic chance to create interestin opportunities out of the classic St. Andrews am already excited to see what theme is pi Touch of Tartan next year!
