Tuesday's Class Programme Link

Between September and July, Tuesday is the night we all get together on a regular basis  (see Location) — the best description is a social night with dance instruction, you don’t have to dance to attend however and some people come with their partners or by themselves just to chat and enjoy the atmosphere.  (Please note this is an Adult dance session, younger visitors are very welcome however, they are usually better dancers than we are!

If you want to try Scottish Country Dancing but haven’t danced before (or it was a long time ago) there is 'beginners, basics & improvers Scottish and Ceilidh dancing class on Monday afternoons see the link HERE or at the top of the page, but if you can't do a daytime class, or if you just want to see what it's like, or to just join in with whatever you are comfortable with, you are very welcome.
The emphasis throughout is on having fun and enjoying yourself rather than fantastic technique. The evening is a sociable one. There is bar service or you can make yourself a cup of tea or coffee for €1.50 There is no pressure to dance if you don’t want to, or can’t for some reason, but if you do want to dance you’ll find it easy to join in, in fact almost impossible not to. You don’t need to come equipped with a partner—although sets are made up of ‘couples’ everyone dances with everyone else in Scottish dancing — all our ‘singles’ get plenty of chances to dance.
 A program for the evening is displayed on this website (see 'Tuesday Programme' link above -with links to instructions and You Tube examples if available) and on the night - the dances are colour coded to allow dancers to judge if they will enjoy them or find them too challenging or not challenging enough!
All dances are walked through and ‘called’ if required. 
Make sure you are wearing suitable footwear, trainers are fine to start with or any other flat flexible shoes—but make sure they will stay on your feet properly so they don’t trip you up. See - the 'warnings' below for more about footwear.
Warnings

• If you are attending for the first time please note that the floor is tile, as are most of the floors in Cyprus. It is hard on the feet; Scottish dancers wear ‘ballet flats’ or ‘ghillies’ usually with some cushioning insoles, but trainers, pumps or similar footwear are fine to start with and will provide some initial cushioning until you get used to it. Flip flops (thongs if you are Australian!), sandals or shoes that aren't fully attached to your feet or footwear with heels are not suitable for Scottish Country Dancing.
• Many Scottish Dances are energetic, but if you don’t consider yourself fit don't let this stop you, there are always some slower dances on the programme too and dancing is an ideal way to get, and keep, fitter, mentally and physically, however if you do have health problems please let the session leader know as some dances may not be suitable for you. Efforts are made to keep people safe but ultimately you are in charge of your own health.
• This is not Ceilidh dancing - although is it closely related to it — once in a set you are part of a team and you may not be able to stop until the dance is ended!
