What makes Scottish dancing Scottish? Is it the colorful kilts or the bagpipes? Although they are icons of Scotland, Scottish dance music is frequently played on violin, piano, accordion, or recorder. Lively jigs and reels as well as the elegant strathspey danced with a partner in a set of three to four couples is the essence of Scottish country dancing. It is the historical and social dance that originated in 17th century Scotland!

It is not necessary to have previous dance experience, nor do you have to bring a partner, as dancers change partners throughout class so as to include everyone.

Typical footwear is ghillies, which resemble a lace-up ballet slipper, but any soft, flat, and flexible shoe may be worn.
