  Condensed matter exhibits a wide variety of exotic emergent phenomena such as
the fractional quantum Hall effect and the low temperature cooperative behavior
of highly frustrated magnets. I consider the classical Hamiltonian dynamics of
spins of the latter phenomena using a method introduced by Dirac in the 1950s
by assuming they are constrained to their lowest energy configurations as a
simplifying measure. Focusing on the kagome antiferromagnet as an example, I
find it is a gauge system with topological dynamics and non-locally connected
edge states for certain open boundary conditions similar to doubled
Chern-Simons electrodynamics expected of a $Z_2$ spin liquid. These dynamics
are also similar to electrons in the fractional quantum Hall effect. The
classical theory presented here is a first step towards a controlled
semi-classical description of the spin liquid phases of many pyrochlore and
kagome antiferromagnets and towards a description of the low energy classical
dynamics of the corresponding unconstrained Heisenberg models.
