In this class, the dancers will continue to perfect their Highland Fling technique, learn the basic movements and steps of the Sword Dance, and begin learning the Seann Triubhas. This class is an interactive dance class, with a positive atmosphere. In addition, dancers will be taught corrections in highland dance, by learning basic theory and dance movements. This class begins with a weekly check in, and quick lesson on Scottish Dance history. We also may watch videos of top Highland dancers, and discuss their dance technique, carriage, and what makes them good dancers. Then there is a warm up, and new steps are slowly introduced. Next, we have class, where we perfect our highland dance steps, with focus on stamina building, strength, and endurance. Highland dance is an athletic dance form, so stamina, strength and endurance are key to dancing it well. Lastly we have a cool down, and stretch. Learners must already know how to dance the Highland Fling, or have had extensive training in another dance form. Class Admittance is determined by the teacher.

教師の専門知識と資格
Hi Everyone,
I’m Susan. I'm a Scottish Highland dance teacher. I started dancing at the age of 6.
I am a Scottish Highland dance teacher certified with the British Association Teachers of Dance. I began teaching at the age of 16 after passing the associates test with highly commended. I continued to take more teaching tests, until I received highly commended on my Fellows exam-the highest honor in teaching Scottish Highland dance.
I believe that it is SO important to focus on a child’s strengths, and to be positive. Children respond SO much better to positive feedback. There are so many new teaching strategies behind this, and I’m excited to use them. I always encourage children to reach their full potential and to have fun.
An interesting fact about me is that I placed 2nd at the US championships in Scottish Highland Dance when I was younger. In addition I was the Southeast Regional Champion several times, the Atlantic International Champion, The Carolinas Open Champion, and the Southern California Open Champion. I look forward to building Scottish Highland Dance classes for dancers over Outschool. I hope to eventually offer classes to all ages and levels.
