Class Information

My name is Cindy Kopenski and I love to do Scottish Highland Dancing. I truly would like to share this passion with your student. In this class, your student will learn basic positions, movements. We will explore learning the primary dances- 16 Pas de Bas and Pas de Bas and Hicuts, along with the steps of the traditional Sword Dance. Studies have shown that Scottish Highland Dancing can help to improve your child’s memory, helps attention disorders, and increases your dancer’s ability to concentrate. Your student will hear the sound of the bagpipes as they learn to do these dances to music.

Dress Requirements:

Scottish highland dancing is best learned wearing shorts, leggings and a loose-fitting top. Those with long hair might be more comfortable with their hair tied back. Please wear a pair of gripper socks to prevent sliding on the tile floor.
