Royal Scottish Country Dance Society

Scottish Country dancing is the joyful social dance form, usually danced to fiddle, accordion & keyboard that has been performed in village halls & castle ballrooms across Scotland for numerous centuries. It is Scotland's answer to "ballroom dancing" & is a precursor to American square dancing. it should not be confused with Highland dancing which is typically solo performances accompanied by bagpipes, Scottish country dances are danced with partners in sets of two or more couples in a variety of formations. 

You don't have to be Scottish to enjoy Scottish country dancing! We run classes, dances & other events. Every two weeks our class attendees dance to live music performed by members of The San Francisco Scottish Fiddlers.
