I love this and seeing you dance! My daddy, from Tennessee, could do this dance and tried to teach me as a kid. I couldn’t quite pick it up but I love watching, and hearing you do the dance.
I clicked on "Old Fashioned Music" for video recommendations and this came up. 😂 Seeing all the young people dancing, if I didn't know better I'd think this was a new invention.
I was raised Indiana rural and never heard of buck dancing. This Appalachian dance wasn't secret, just not widely known. The Internet and RUclips spread the story and you sre one of the leaders. Due to the many other RUclips dancers I fully expect that non English speakers world wide will adopt it as another aspect of American popular culture. I am waiting for enthusiastic German youth to form clubs for "Buck Tanzen".
So glad to see you again! I really loved watching the video, how could I not. You were smiling ear to ear and very lighthearted, such an infectious smile. 😊 It is so obvious how passionate you are about buck dancing and I think that it is really cool that you make these videos to share it with all of us. Can't wait til the next one. Take care and God Bless. 😊 🙏
I'm glad you posted this. I will re watch it while I wait for part 2. I took a flat- footing/ clogging class at a folk music school years ago. I was 1 or 2 men in the class and for this subject, I was not as quick a learner as the rest. But the scenes of men over 70 buck dancing gives me hope. So does the possibility of not having to be choreographed, as in the clogging class, where I was often afraid of messing things up for the whole group with a wrong move.
Just being able to get to know you a little better is worth a lot, your passion and talent is fantastic, hopefully it is contagious I know for me I get energized just watching and listening!
That is so good. I have done clogging for several years but now I have scoliosis and I need to do something different. I really like your style. Thank you. ❤❤😊😊LK from Canada.
I was hoping to see ya again,Hillary,I enjoy watching the various styles of dancing. I am from Minnesota and would like to see ya live,instead of via video. 😁
Thank you, thank you, thank you! What an interesting and informative video this was! THANK YOU for helping me achieve my goals for each day which are - learn something new every day and do something kind for someone every day. This was so enjoyable.❤
I'm so glad you made this series! I've been trying to find good beginner buckdance videos and there's no chance in hell I'd find a teacher here in Australia!
Its buckdancing but I've known that forever but cloging is new to me. I think i learned it when i was a little girl growing up in the 50,s and watching old musicals from back then.
I have admired your talent both dancing & playing for quite some time now. I am still trying to play my violin again after a workplace accident 10 years ago. You & Karolina Protsenko have inspired me to keep trying. I have recently borrowed a Stratovarius copy made by a luthier in The Che
Czechoslovakia. I need surgery on my left shoulder, so I tried a left handed violin , but couldn't get the feel for it, so back to right handed again with a padded shoulder rest to help ease some pain on ky left shoulder trying to play again. I have also switched to playing fiddle style by ear, rather than try to learn ti sight read all over again. Too much memory loss from head trauma, though some of my music theory is coming back a little, along with slow but steady progress of the dexterity in my fingers on on ky left hand. Despite also having a right knee prosthetic & waiting for a new left hip replacement, I will be trying out some of your dance lessons, since it is simular to clogging. What footwear do you recommend?
Hi Hillary I enjoy your music the way you play different instruments and the fiddle you may remember me im Din from highlands Texas I'm sorry for being an ass the last time we chatted presently im in the VA hospital Houston my phone is not fully set up I just want to say congratulations on the buck dancing championship
I love your style. I've seen taps screwed onto sneakers in my time! You could git someone to lay some on a pair a boots so you too could transcend the "categories". You just made me realize that I do buck dance. I trained in tap but my style is rhythmic and could stand on it's own like a percussion accompaniment. It's much like the very last young man. He's got his own style. New "moves" or steps come and go in theatrical dance. The roots of tap are in the folk dance, just adapted to the extravagant musicals for show. Keep on dancin and playin your music! ❤
I was recently inspired by Thomas Maupin and can't find anyone in Ohio who even has a clue as to what this is. This is the only instructional video I have found by a champion and must now convince my wife that I am watching gthe videos to learn and NOT because of the instructor.😂
Hillary you have got to be the most boot scootinist Buck dancing little lady ever! I love watching you dance and play your fiddle. You've got some brilliant talent young lady. This message is coming from way out in the outback in Australia 🌏🦘.
Hi Hillary, good to see you again. My computer was not working right, so I had it tuned up. Working good now and I can comment again. Keep up the GOOD WORK, HILLARY.
Hello Hillary I have been watching you on You Tube for a long time. Love your music & dance. I'm from NJ but was raised on Country & Blue Grass What would you call the dance Jed Clampett (Buddy Ebson) does on the Beverly Hillbillies? Probably my first exposure to this as a child of the 60's. Thank you for keeping this art alive. Love it
G,ay down under ,love your dance and try to learn,love to see you in concert or Tamworth,N.S.W Australia, Please come to Australia in future thank you for good music,buck dance ing video from down under.
Yes I would really like to learn the buck or flat foot style of dancing. I am an ex clogger but I would like to learn how to use my feet 👣 to o dance. LK from Canada. Good stuff. ❤❤❤😊😊😊
Hi, i just love this style of dancing (buck dance / flat foot / clogging), but only get to see it here on RUclips cos i'm from the UK. I absolutely love it & would love to learn maybe just a little for myself. Technology i'm rubbish at, is there an easier way to get straight to the lessons? ❤
Johnny Carson was a hoofer. He said he did "soft shoe". I always assumed that was tap dancing without taps. Is it a whole other style/step? You are some of my favorite entertainment. Now I know dad and others were buck dancing.
Thats cool you sure good at thats what caught my eye first but when i was young a looooong time ago a whole high school of girls said i can teach you to dance i still cant dance but bless them for trying but what the heck i would watch you and now i know im watching a champ as good as you are yhat don't surprise me at all cool
Hay Hillary you mind if I share your video I might want to learn how to Buck dance 💃 hopefully I can can watch you and maybe I will be able to learn how...
Thanks for this explanation, Hillary. I always wondered what the difference between buck dancing, flat footing, and Appalachian clogging was. Many years ago in Boston I did rapper dancing, which is a kind of English sword dance that incorporates some simplified Northumbrian clogging. (See ruclips.net/video/R8MmDebC1Zc/видео.html for an excellent example of a team dancing rapper.) While I know that Northumbrian clogging is a very different tradition than Buck dancing or Appalachian clogging, I thought you might find it interesting to see one of the best Northumbrian cloggers I've ever known. His name was Tony Barrand. He came from England, but came to the U.S. for college and lived in New England for the rest of his life. He eventually got a job as Professor of Folklore at Boston University. And he also performed English traditional music with John Roberts, someone else who'd moved from England to the U.S. for college and stayed here. Tony was also an amazing dancer until he was afflicted with MS. He passed away just last year. There are videos on RUclips of when he was in his prime. There's a good one at 6 min. 49 sec. into ruclips.net/video/y0jeEIWQXE8/видео.html. It's a different style than Buck dancing, but just as you describe with Buck dancing, it's about using his feet as part of the music more than about high kicks and showy moves. A few years after I started dancing rapper, I moved to Bloomington, Indiana and I assembled a rapper team. One of the dancers was a woman who'd done Appalachian clogging with the "Apple Chill from Chapel Hill" cloggers in North Carolina. So we also practiced clogging and eventually did some performing. But we were never as expert at it as you are at Buck dancing. Your ability to do that while also playing fiddle just makes my jaw drop in amazement every time I watch one of your videos.

I didn't know what champion you were until now, but I have been watching your videos on RUclips for years!
Thanks from 🇨🇦 !
Buckdancing is appalation territory known but fun for all! ❤ glad you are a representative for it
All shapes, sizes and ages. Quite inspiring really.
I'm so glad you made this series! I've been trying to find good beginner buckdance videos and there's no chance in hell I'd find a teacher here in Australia!
You are right. I reckon you and me must be two of the three (apprentice) buck dancers in Australia 😅
Holy mackerel, I think that guy with the beer belly at 15:04 is the best 🙂
I wanna learn this. Just got my shoes. So extatic.
It's so interesting to learn about buck dancing, clogging and flat foot dancing. I am sharing your videos!
Its buckdancing but I've known that forever but cloging is new to me. I think i learned it when i was a little girl growing up in the 50,s and watching old musicals from back then.
This is so great. Thanks!
I have admired your talent both dancing & playing for quite some time now. I am still trying to play my violin again after a workplace accident 10 years ago. You & Karolina Protsenko have inspired me to keep trying. I have recently borrowed a Stratovarius copy made by a luthier in The Che

I had no idea you were the national champion until now. I can’t even begin to describe how completely unsurprised I am to find that out lol
Hi Hillary I enjoy your music the way you play different instruments and the fiddle you may remember me im Din from highlands Texas I'm sorry for being an ass the last time we chatted presently im in the VA hospital Houston my phone is not fully set up I just want to say congratulations on the buck dancing championship
What an amazing video, you explained it so well 😍
Brilliant.
That was very interesting, so much I didn't know.
Thank-you very much.
I'm from north Ga and go to Oktoberfest in Helen Ga every fall and they got some good cloggers up there. You should play there next year.
I enjoyed, it reminds me of my childhood. 💯
Hi,just awesomeness dancing,lovely video,to be sure,tony 💃⭐️🎶👍🎵🎤
It's all right. I told everyone that I want everyone in northern and southern Utah to be doing this by next year.
I love your style. I've seen taps screwed onto sneakers in my time! You could git someone to lay some on a pair a boots so you too could transcend the "categories".
You just made me realize that I do buck dance. I trained in tap but my style is rhythmic and could stand on it's own like a percussion accompaniment. It's much like the very last young man.

Keep on dancin and playin your music! ❤
I really want to learn how to buck dance. Thank you for posting this! Now I have a starting lesson❤😊❤
