We’re fortunate enough to see Beltane Morris quite frequently, both locally and at festivals we play at. Their energetic performances are always impressive.

Beautiful! Embrace the old ways ❤

Gods, the music, the dance, the costumes, the portrayed 'tude of defiance! What's not to like? BELTANE BORDER ROCKS!

I'm an American who has been watching morris dance videos for a couple months. In my opinion, Beltane Border Morris Dancers are the BEST. I love their energy, dance skills and costumes. I'm so glad there are people keeping this dance form evolving and alive.

American here also . I bumped into these videos a couple days ago . I'm hooked .

Oh could we but have something as beautiful as this in our US Revels. Ours are wonderful, but these folk are spectacular. Here's to all the old customs-just don't burn the covens.

I’m entranced by this group😊

Love this vibe!!

Wonderful ❤ absolutely loved it

Bad ass Morris dancers, watch out!!!

Excellent and so pleased to see the mari lwd

I've always been a fan of the Morris, but this Morris side is something else! Really love the "bigness" of these guys' movements in their performances. Also the edginess and the air of danger about them. Absolutely superb. I prefer the make up around the eyes as opposed to the earlier iteration of the full-face black (which I imagine probably sparked a few complaints - "black-face" and all that garbage) I just think the mask effect looks much better; more effective, and in keeping with the costumes, which are amazing!

The black face was to hide their identity, some groups have started to placate those of a delicate and sensitive nature by painting their faces blue, though i feel it won't be long before the smurf community start complaining.

keep the full black soot face, anyone who complains is an idiot

EPIC ! God bless you all !

I know that there’s a lot of skill in performing the traditional Morris dance, knowing when to wave your hanky and rattle your bells, but I’m afraid they always make me think of Monty Python, or maybe it’s just a synchronized cry for help. But the Beltane crew are the real stuff, dark as ravens and wild as our pagan past. Brilliant stuff!

love it all brilliant their horse doesn't look well though lol

Da nu nach!

Love this,whats the tune called. Feel like i know it but cant place it.

At last something thats actually English !
