Devised
for
Mike
and
Eilean
Yates,
formerly
of
Shelby,
North
Carolina
in
February
2013.
The
Yates'
have
been
pillars
of
dancing
in
the
Carolinas
for
decades
and
also
involved
in
the
dancing
at
the
Loch
Norman
Highland
Games almost since the beginning.
Beyond dancing, Mike's passion for viewing solar eclipses has taken them all over the world.
Sandy
devised
this
dance
during
the
final
weeks
of
Mike's
life,
with
the
hope
that
the
dance
would
also
travel
the
world
in
Mike's
memory.
To
this
end,
Sandy
taught
the
dance
at
TAC
Summer
School
2014
in
Greeley,
Colorado, and encouraged everyone to take it home with them.
