What to wear?

For your first Scottish Country Dance class wear soft, flat shoes that are comfortable, do not come off easily, and are easy to move in. Wear comfortable clothes that are not too tight or constricting.

Ballet shoe

If you decide to join the class on a regular basis you will probably want to buy some ballet slippers or ghillies. Some people prefer to buy jazz dance shoes as they give a little more support than the ballet slippers. Take a look at the following links to see what dance shoes are available. Black is the most popular colour for dance shoes but they are available in a range of colours.

Stage and Street in downtown Sudbury carry dance shoes and can order special sizes.

Ghillies

Dancers dress casually for dance classes but more formally for big dances and Highland Balls.
