Welcome to Lyon !
Do you love to dance? We do, come and join us!
The Lyon Scottish Country Dancing group was created in 1986, its 19
members had never danced SCD regularly before. During day-schools
organised by « la Chanterelle » and « la Ronde
Folklorique », they discovered country dancing and decided to meet
once a month to dance SCD. The group decided to be integrated in «La
Chanterelle» in 1987, and to affiliate to the Royal Scottish Country
Dance Society (RSCDS) in 1991. Over the years, the number of evening
workshops increased, along with the number of new members, and we are
now more than thirty. In June 2005, we became a totally independent
association, under the name “Scottish Chanterelle”. We have just become
a Branch of the RSCDS.
Not only do we hold regular classes on Fridays, but we also organise
day-schools, weekends and balls that enable us and many dancers from
other parts of France or Europe to discover the talents of our guest
teachers and musicians : whether they are French or British, they come
to share their knowledge of and passion for SCD.
