President's Welcome

A warm welcome to everyone who would like to join us in traditional Scottish Country Dancing, Walks and Social Occasions.

We dance from September to April (with a Christmas break) on Tuesday nights*

7.30-10.00 pm at St George's School, Watergate Road, Newport.

Just come along, or contact Marie Sawle, 01983-291063, for details.

All are welcome no matter what your age or experience; we have members in their eighties that still dance, new members who have taken up dancing when retirement provided them with the time to try something new, and youngsters in their twenties looking for something different.

You don't have to be Scottish to join, neither do you have to commit yourself to full membership straight away; come as a guest and see for yourself how relaxed, friendly and informal we are.

If you are a complete beginner then do not think you have to go to great expense to buy equipment i.e. Kilts etc. However, it is helpful, though not essential, to purchase a pair of soft soled dancing shoes.

Fashion plays its part in Scottish Dancing as in all things and the current list of popular dances includes :

  • The Belle of Bon Accord
