Highland Dancing

 

The Seaforth Highland Dancers.

Highland dancers have been a part of the band since the 1960's. The tradition was revived in 2001 and since then has gone from strength to strength.

The dancers, in their vibrant tartans, now entertain with our band and others at venues both in the UK and abroad with their energetic displays including:

Reels

Strathspey

Hornpipes

Traditional Highland Fling

 The audience favourite, the Crossed Swords Dance.

Highland dancing is physically demanding, and a fun and social way of keeping fit!

Some of our dancers also choose to enter competitions with the SOBHD,(Scottish Official Board of Highland Dancing), and have been very successful.

Anyone can join us from 4-5 years onwards. No special equipment is initially required and once you are ready to perform with us we will even provide your costumes.

Classes are held on Wednesdays at Birstall Methodist Church, 38 Wanlip Lane, Leicester LE4 4JS 7.00pm-9pm. There is no charge for classes although you will be asked to purchase your own shoes.
