HIGHLANDFLING
Highland Fling
The Highland Fling is a solo Highland dance that gained popularity in the early 19th century. The word 'Fling' means literally a movement in dancing. In John Jamieson's Etymological Dictionary of the Scottish Language, 1808, Highland Fling was defined as 'one species of movement' in dancing, not just one particular movement. There is some speculation that the first solo Highland Fling dances simply showed off steps that individual dancers preferred in the Strathspey Reel, a social dance.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Highland Fling
