Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery

 We've been copying dances from other sides (with permission) ever since we started Anonymous Morris, but we've also written a couple of our own.

Today, at Wimborne Folk Festival, we got the ultimate compliment on one of our home-grown dances.  Bloodstone border asked if they could copy it.

We smiled happily and said yes.  We filmed it this afternoon for them and have just uploaded it to YouTube.

I really like that - I might have a bash at developing something around hats. I'm currently trying to write? a dance based on a kite ..

Well, if you get the urge to dance it, the notation is here - http://anonymousmorris.co.uk/dances/Hat.html


All we ask is that people credit us if they dance it.

Dancing while flying a kite, or a dance in the shape of a kite or a dance around a kite?


Hunter's Moon have a good six person dance using hats - it may be one of John Kirkpatrick's.
