PLEASE NOTE It will come as no surprise to those of you who visit this site that because of current restrictions there will be no dance classes for the foreseeable future though it is to be hoped we can start again in September 2021. As a concomitant of this it has been necessary to cancel the Open Dance that would normally take place in March. For those of you who wish to keep their hands in (or rather feet) I recommend visiting the Scottish Country Dancing Dictionary (scottish-country-dancing-dictionary.com) which has a wide selection of videos including "The hand Sanitiser Strathspey" and the "Corona Virus Reel"! So, in the immortal words of Robbie Shepherd, be lookin' for ye an' 'a the best till then.
