The price is only &#8211; $10 or $8 for students which, for what you get is a super bargain \u2014 everyone is welcome. No partner is required and you should wear FLAT, comfy shoes and loose clothing. Children are also welcome but should be prepared to dance with other people as some of the dances require a change of partner. Don\u2019t forget to bring a few extra $$$$ to help defray the cost of the refreshments which are otherwise free.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vancouverceilidh.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/machrie-moor-Arran.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1698\" title=\"machrie  moor Arran\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vancouverceilidh.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/machrie-moor-Arran.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"976\" height=\"549\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vancouverceilidh.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/machrie-moor-Arran.jpg 976w, https:\/\/www.vancouverceilidh.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/machrie-moor-Arran-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 976px) 100vw, 976px\" \/><\/a>Machrie Moor, Arran<\/p>\n<p>For those who enjoy listening to Scottish music, song, banter etc. try <a href=\"https:\/\/www.andysceilidh.co.uk\/\">www.andysceilidh.co.uk\/<\/a> this is a radio programme that you can get sent to you and listen any time you want.

SCD is, naturally, rooted in Scotland but there are groups in almost every country so you can learn here and then dance with other groups when you vacation or travel. SCD is not to be confused with Highland Dancing which is more solo dancing. SCD is usually done with a partner in groups or sets however you do not need to come with a partner. It is more akin to Square Dancing. It takes a year or two of classes, workshops, etc. to get the basics learnt then you can hone your skills in advanced classes. You start by learning the steps and formations. Dances (of which there are over 13,000) are made up of these formations so a good grounding will give you the ability to learn a new dance fairly quickly. SCD has its HQ in Scotland and is known as the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society (RSCDS) and there is a Vancouver Branch of the RSCDS under which there are many clubs throughout the Province (there also are Branches in Victoria and Seattle). There are a great many classes and the ones in the Vancouver area are listed below. Come along \u2014 check us out \u2014 the first night is usually free and thereafter it will average about $6 a night and that\u2019s for a 2 hour class! You will find many friendly people who will be eager to help you and welcome you to their club. You never know you actually might like it!!<\/p>\n<p>Check the list of classes at either at <a href=\"..\/\">www.vancouverceilidh.org<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rscdsvancouver.org\/\">www.rscdsvancouver.org<\/a>.
