Adult Classes 2008 - 2009

September 2008

 

Urgent Update - Change of venue and time for Advanced and Open Class

(updated Sept 4th)

Very Advanced Class Dates and teacher now confirmed (below).

The September term starts week commencing 15th September and will run for 10 weeks.  The mid term break is weeks commencing 13th and 20th October when no classes will be running.

We have an Open class designed for Beginners and anyone who would like to brush up on their technique and this is on a Tuesday at the Boys Brigade (on the corner of Crimon Place and Summer Street) - 7:30 - 9:00.

For those who would like to do more advanced technique, the Advanced class is on a Monday at St Margaret's (gymnasium) from 7:30 - 9:00.

If you would prefer to just dance then join us for the Social class on a Wednesday at the Boys Brigade Hall from 7:30 - 9:00.  Please note that this class is not suitable for beginners.  Alternatively, we run another Social class on a Thursday afternoon 2:00 - 3:30 at Holburn West Church.

All our classes have a musician and everyone is welcome.

As always we welcome new members and if you've never done Scottish Country Dancing before, we particularly welcome Beginners.  If you would like to know a little more about what Scottish Country Dancing is, click here.

Class at Westhill.  We are instigating a new class at the Ashdale Hall in Westhill for the 4 weeks following our Scottish Open Night.  Commencing on Tuesday 16th September from 8:30pm to 10:00 there will be a class for beginners (or improvers).  This class is already proving successful, and we will continue for another 4 weeks until 4th November (no mid-term break) and maybe beyond!  If you would like further information click here and click here for contacting the secretary.

For those of you who have attended a Ceilidh Class run by the RSCDS Aberdeen Branch in the past, sadly we are not currently offering a class this year

We are also running a teacher's Certificate class for those who would like to become an RSCDS qualified teacher.  If you are interested in this class (which starts in September), please contact Lynn Wood ASAP.  This class is now up and running (Oct 2008).
