Members of RSCDS Edinburgh Branch receive the following benefits:
RSCDS Membership through Edinburgh Branch costs £39 and helps with running both local activities and setting international standards, training and publications. From this amount, £9 is retained by the Edinburgh Branch and the remainder passed on to the world-wide parent body, RSCDS.

Scottish Country Dancing has become a way of life for me.
RSCDS Edinburgh is a particularly active Branch, with several classes and dance sessions to choose from. The emphasis is on enjoyment and a genuine welcome is extended to dancers of all abilities.
Through Summer School I’ve made friends of all ages and from all parts of the world - many of whom stay in regular contact in between opportunities to reconnect on a dancefloor somewhere.
While fitness may not be the primary goal, it’s certainly a welcome by-product. In short – what’s not to like?
