Our dancers dance such dances as the Highland Fling, Sword dance and national dances such as the Irish Jig, and the Sailors Hornpipe.

Two competitions back to back


This is a photo of the morning dancers at the North Texas Highland Games. A big congratulations to all of them. Two of our dancers went the following weekend to the Kansas City Highland games held in Mo. and placed very well. So proud of them all. Now that the competitions are done for a while we will be introducing some choreographies into our regular practices. We will still be working on our competition dances, just going to have a bit of fun also with the classes. Keep up the good work.
