We are a group of 100+ dancers who enjoy the fun and challenge of Scottish Country Dancing. We welcome all ages and all backgrounds. (No, you don't have to be Scottish!) We provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere for learning the dance and enjoying each other's company.

What we do

We have weekly classes from September to May where our experienced teachers provide instruction on all aspects of Scottish Country Dance.  We welcome newcomers to come to our beginner class anytime to check it out.  Your first 3 classes are free!
