Scottish Highland Dance

Scottish Highland Dancing is a celebration of the Scottish spirit. The dances are a spectacular combination of strength, agility, movement, music, and costume. Unlike other dance mediums, Highland dances are generally danced solo and in competition. Dancers dance to Scottish Bagpipes playing traditional Scottish music such as Strathspeys, Reels, Hornpipes, and Jigs. The dances are made up of different parts, called steps and there are usually four or six steps to a dance. The dances are great fun and anyone, not just those with a Scottish heritage, can join in and learn to Scottish Highland Dance!  For more information check out the ScotDance USA website to learn more!!  www.scotdanceusa.com​
