Scottish Country Dancing is the
traditional ballroom dancing of Scotland. The Royal Scottish Country
Dance Society, based in Edinburgh, was founded in 1923 to preserve this
joyful social dance tradition. Since then Scottish Country Dancing has
spread all over the world.
|
Scottish Country dances are danced with
partners in sets of two or more couples doing an exciting variety of
formations. The dances vary in tempo, including lively jigs, hornpipes
and reels, and the slower, elegant strathspeys.
|
If you want to join in an activity that
is both friendly and fun, why not try Scottish Country Dancing? Anyone
of any age can have a go and it gives you the opportunity to enjoy a
hobby that's a guaranteed way of forgetting your worries, meeting
friends and having fun as well as an energetic way of keeping fit.
