Scottish Country Dancing is a very sociable type of dancing for people of all ages, backgrounds, fitness and experience.
It is good fun and a great way to get out, meet people and make friends.
It is really good exercise so it keeps you fit and it exercises your mind as well as your body as you have to try and remember what you are supposed to be doing next!
You don’t need to bring a partner, just come along.
In Scottish Country dancing we like to change partners for each new dance so you get to know everyone at the class.
After a few dance evenings most people decide to buy a pair of dancing shoes designed specifically for Scottish Country Dancing, soft leather pumps or ghillies, but beginners should wear any comfortable shoes with a soft non-slip sole, such as jazz or ballet shoes or canvas plimsolls. We recommend James Senior or Thistle Shoes
