Medway and District Caledonian Association has been flourishing in North Kent since the early 1920's and is now one of the largest Scottish Country Dancing groups in Kent. Membership is not limited to Scots, and you don't need to bring a partner as there will always be someone to dance with. Age is no barrier either, we have some members dancing well into their 80’s. So, whether you are a stylish experienced dancer or very much a beginner, we would love to meet you at one of our sessions and/or events.

What is Scottish Country Dancing?

Scottish Country Dancing is a very sociable type of dancing for people of all ages, backgrounds, fitness and experience. It is good fun and a great way to get out, meet people and make friends. It is really good exercise so it keeps you fit and it exercises your mind as well as your body as you have to try and remember what you are supposed to be doing next! There are over 14,000 different dances, so it's difficult to learn them all but the more you dance the more you learn.
