About This Event

**8 week Beginners' course starts 7 Oct 2026** If you've ever enjoyed ceilidh dancing or reeling and wanted to learn more about Scottish dance, this may be just the course for you. **Join us to learn how to Dance Scottish with great teachers, live music and a warm, welcoming environment.** Our 8 week course will give a thorough introduction to the basic steps and formations needed for Scottish Country Dance. ​There is no need for special clothes or shoes to begin with, just wear something comfortable and soft, flat light shoes.
