SCOTTISH COUNTRY DANCING

Fun!      Fitness!      Friendship!

 

Welcome to the website of the Auckland Region of the New Zealand Branch Inc,  Royal Scottish Country Dance Society (RSCDS).

The Auckland Region covers Auckland and Northland from Tuakau, south of Auckland, to Kaitaia in the north.

 

Scottish Country Dancing is done in groups of 6 or 8 people and is very different from highland dancing, which is individual dancing. It is social dancing suitable for all ages.

 

It is not necessary to be adept to enjoy this type of dancing,  but the better you dance,  the more you will enjoy it.  Classes and tuition are available for dancers of all levels from beginner to experienced.

 

People enjoy Scottish country dancing for many reasons such as:

Ø      Great toe-tapping music

Ø      Enjoyable physical exercise

Ø      Companionship of friendly people of all ages

Ø      Great way to improve co-ordination and keep the mind alert

Ø      No partner needed

Ø      No special clothes needed – just a pair of soft shoes

 

But mostly because it’s fun!

Come and join us! Many clubs in Auckland and Northland!  There’s bound to be a club near you!
