Everyone is welcome to attend our classes, where we learn specific dances and the steps and style particular to our form of dance. No matter where you are world-wide, Scottish country dances are done in the same manner. If you travel on business or pleasure, or move to a new city or country, anywhere there is a local group group, you will be welcome and at home. Groups are all over the globe... the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society (RSCDS) website has a directory online (check our links page).
We have regular classes from September to May, and you can usually come and join us at any point in the year. A word to the wise: this dance form is exhilarating, and addictive, but it is not instant, and some commitment is required if you are to become proficient. However, it is enjoyable from the get-go, with toe-tapping music (often traditional), and the excitement that comes from doing these joyful dances that are so different from the usual in our mainstream culture.
The classes (and occasional workshops) are fun in themselves, but they also prepare you for the dances and balls we host.
