Scottish Country dance is the distinctively Scottish form of country dance.  It is a form of social dance involving groups of couples of dancers tracing progressive patterns.  A dance consists of a sequence of figures.  These dances are set to musical forms (Jigs, Reels and Strathspey Reels) which come from the Gaelic tradition of Highland Scotland, as do the Steps used in performing the dances.

Scottish country dancing develops a sense of community and enjoyment, which encourages continued participation, and long term involvement, and is linked with good health, a positive attitude and longevity
