Scottish Country Dance- New Dancers Class

The beginner class is taught by our enthusiastic and popular teacher, Jeanne Moody, who covers the basics of moving to the music and footwork for dancing.

We welcome dancers of all abilities and fitness levels to our beginners series, from those with extensive experience in other forms of dance to those who have never danced before. You don't need to be Scottish to dance scottish! There are no expectations to dance perfectly…this is just for fun! Mistakes are part of the experience!

No need to bring a partner. We’re always super excited to welcome new dancers!

We are a registered non-profit dedicated to preserving Scottish Country Dancing!

Cost: Classes cost $7, but first class is free!

Location: Balboa Park, Casa del Prado, room 203

What to Wear: The most important thing is to be comfortable, wear shoes and clothes you can move in. Please bring clean, soft-soled shoes, non-marking flat shoes (no heels). Do not wear flip-flops, loose sandals or stiff, ballroom dance style shoes. You want a shoe with a flexible sole that isn't clunky. A simple flat-sole sneaker will work. For clothing, men wear pants or shorts (generally, kilts are only worn to special events, but never required). Ladies often wear skirts or dresses, but they're not required. Be comfortable!
