Welcome Week 2017

Welcome to New Scotland

We welcome you with many exciting events during Fresher’s weekend:

  • Scottish dance Workshops
    Tuesday 12th September 13.00-16.00 Quaker Studio, Pleasance
    Saturday 16th September 13.00-16.00 Debating Hall, Teviot
    During either of these two workshops, you will learn all Scottish Dances we have to offer: Scottish Country Dance, Highland Dance, Scottish Step and Ceilidh. Come and get a taster to figure out what’s right for you.
  • Ceilidh Crash Course
    Sunday 10th September 13.00-16.00 Debating Hall, Teviot
    We will teach you to not crash at your first Ceilidh. You will learn all the figures and the popular dances of the famous Scottish Dance Party.
  • Fresher’s Ceilidh
    Wednesday 13 September 19.00-23.00 Debating Hall, Teviot
    A fun way to meet people and learn some Scottish Culture with lots of fun on the way. We do Group and Couple dances and show you some of our more advanced dancers. All Dances are taught on the day and you don’t need to know anything.
  • Taster Session
    Monday 18th September 19.00-22.00 St. Peter’s Church Hall, Lutton Place
    Try out all the Scottish dance styles (Scottish Country Dance, Highland Dance, Scottish Step and Ceilidh) and meet more members of the society!

To all our events you can wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Trainers work well with Scottish dancing. You don’t need any money to get in, but the bars catered by EUSA will be open if you would like to get a refreshment.

If you liked what you see here, why not come along to some of our weekly classes starting the week beginning September 18th (except for beginners step, ceilidh, and country, which start the week beginning September 25th, and have been replaced with the above Taster Session on Monday 18th).
