Ladies' Step Dance


	Teachers: Angela Young, Alice Stainer

		Musician: Various

Step dances differ from Scottish country dances partly because they are usually solo dances. A step dance requires the dancer to execute a defined sequence of foot movements. The heyday of step dancing in Scotland was from about 1750 for roughly 100 years. Dancing masters would compose dances for their pupils to perform, usually at balls, to demonstrate their skills. The tradition continues and there are also modern step dances.

We will be running a series of three one day workshops incorporating Highland Dancing in the morning and Ladies Step in the afternoon. These Workshops will replace the existing Highland & Ladies Step classes.

The teachers for these Workshops are:
