Discover the reels, jigs and strathspeys of Scottish Country Dancing (SCD), and find out why British psychologists have claimed that Scottish Country Dancing is better than sex!*

You don't have to be Scottish to enjoy doing the dances from Scotland. SCD is practiced on every continent (including Antarctica) and is a popular past time for people of many ages and backgrounds.

Join to stay fit, or to become a part of the global SCD scene which offers world-wide classes and events including schools, formal balls, social gatherings, cruises and travel tours.

You don't need a partner, nor any experience. Our regular dancing nights are all open to beginners - so come as you are, with a pair of flat, comfortable shoes. You will join with qualified teachers and more advanced dancers to learn the footwork and formations.

The cost is $8 and you will also receive a coupon for a second night free.

For a preview, try looking up Scottish Country Dancing on youtube...

      Here is the recipe for the pumpkin cheesecake I made for the 11/16/09 session. I'm glad so many of you enjoyed it and I will make it again next fall.
