 Our
Goal is to bring the fun and drama of Scottish Dance and Music to venues
throughout the Puget Sound. We have about 16 dancers in
our troop and a number of excellent musicians.
We offer performances of Scottish Country
Dancing, Scottish Step Dancing, and some Highland Dancing along
with live music. We typically perform at festivals, fairs,
schools, weddings, parties, fundraising events, and conventions.
Our performances can be catered to your
needs and desires. We have several different costumes
which give an historical or a more modern context.
 Scottish
Country Dancing is the ballroom dance of Scotland. It consists
of energetic jigs and reels and graceful strathspeys. Our
repertoire includes dances dating from the 17th
century to new dances devised in the past 2 or 3 years.
Ladies Step Dancing is a solo tradition
featuring intricate
steps and story dances. These are
the dances the dance masters of old taught in their dance
schools
back in the day. We perform a number of soft shoe dances
as well as several "hard shoe" step dances.
Highland Dancing, the oldest form of
Scottish Dancing, is highly technical and vigorous. Our men
perform several highland dances including the Fling and the
Sword Dance.
