The Cakewalk

This version of The Cakewalk was devised by Robert McOwen for dancers Aileen Ritchie and Gregor Williamson to enter a Cakewalk Choreography Competition at the Scotland, CT Highland Games in October 2006. Needless to say, they took first place! Since then, Aileen and Gregor have performed the dance in concert with Highland Dance Boston. Enjoy!
