Dance devised by Bill Zobel as a tribute to Ruth Jappy of Delta, British Columbia, who has for decades been one of the world's leading ambassadors for Scottish Country Dancing and its music. NOTE: Since the original publication of "Dancing on Air" in 2011, bars [13-16] and [21-24] of this dance have been modified. The formation is now "set to corner; turn corner BH". The diagrams are correct.
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
