Come and enjoy Scottish country dancing for fun, fitness and friendship
Branch
The Pretoria Scottish Country Dance Club was formed on 6 July 1972 by Ina Bergh, Cooks Dauth and Hetty Nash. The club became a branch of the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society in 1982. We currently have about 20 members, ranging from advanced dancers to some very enthusiastic beginners.
Classes
We dance every Thursday evening, except before Good Friday and during the Christmas – New Year period. Classes are held in St Columba’s Presbyterian Church hall, Hilda Street, Hatfield, Pretoria, South Africa, at the following times:
| Class | Time | Teacher |

| General teaching | 20:00-20:45 | Wouter Joubert |
| Tea | 20:45-21:00 | |

In 2018 we dance until Thursday 6 December, and reopen on Thursday 10 January 2019.
