Dave Hall will play and teach. Dave danced and played music from an early age. While technique and improving standards is a great interest of Dave, it is still the thrill of moving as a group of people to music with great lift and verve that keeps him involved with the SCD scene.

Sam Schad will teach Advanced class and Choreography. πŸ’ƒ Sam has the great job of teaching the Oxford University Scottish Dance Society's advanced class. She really enjoys choreography and has had fun collaborating with her daughter, Beth, on some spectacular displays.

Our #SpringFling23Ed Roaring 20s Ball programme featured many classic Scottish Country Dances, including this one 'Light and Airy'. The dancers definitely look 'light and airy', with more than a little help from Jim Lindsay and his Scottish Dance Band and their fantastic tunes!

William Williamson, RSCDS Chairman, is well practiced at cake cutting, so we were delighted he could come along and put his skills to good use at our #SpringFling23Ed Ball ☺ (We're not entirely sure what point he was making here, but Jim Lindsay definitely looks amused!)

At our #SpringFling23Ed Roaring 20s Ball, we had the delight of dancing to the fantastic sounds of Jim Lindsay and his Scottish Dance Band. What a night! In this video of Anna Holden's Strathspey, don't miss the magic moment where every set in the hall dances down the middle!
