About the club
We are a social club who welcome members of all abilities including total beginners. All dances are walked through before being danced.
There is no need to bring a partner as we all take turns at dancing with each other. Also, there is no need to wear Scottish apparel, but soft shoes or trainers are recommended - in due course, you may wish to buy some purpose-made soft dancing shoes.


Dances and events
  • Social Nights- These are regular nights. taken by members of the club, that run from 8pm until 10pm with refreshments and biscuits served in the interval.
  • Instruction Nights - These are taken by qualified teachers associated with the club. In these nights, steps and movements are practised and dances walked through slowly. Refreshments are served as per a Social Night.
  • Party Nights - These are generally taken by committee members and run for an extra half hour; this is to allow for supper at 9pm. All attending are asked to bring a plate of finger food to share.
  • Burns' Dance - This is held in January as close to the 25th as possible, with a Haggis dinner (vegetarians and allergy's can be catered for) before dancing. Tickets are sold in the run up to this.  The event starts at 8pm and finishes at 11pm.
  • Spring Dance - This is held in March with live music.  Please bring a plate of savoury finger food for a shared buffet, and the committee will provide puddings.  The event starts at 8pm and finishes at 11pm. 
  • AGM (Annual General Meeting) - This is held in April, when the club hears reports from the Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer, elects a committee, raises questions and makes decisions for the following year. Once the meeting has finished the rest of the night runs as a normal Social Night.
  • Summer Dance - This is held in June and is similar to a Social Night. It is open to all and runs from 8pm until 10:30pm.
