Organised
Scottish Dancing on the Côte d’Azur
started when an international group of
young children were taking part in a
festival and local enthusiasts were
requested to give them some basic
tuition. As a result of this, the Club
was founded in 1990, and from then on,
Scottish Dancing has continued
regularly in the Mougins area.
The Club
became an Official Association in
1993, and we still continue to thrive
and to enjoy our dancing. We
celebrated our 10th
Anniversary in the year 2000 with an
Open Day event for the general public,
and a Club Ball in the evening.
Our official 15th birthday coincided
appropriately with a Burns' Night
which commemorated the 250th
anniversary of the poet's birth.
During
these years, most weeks we have had a
regular attendance comprised of
several nationalities, and this
enables us to form and dance 2 or 3
sets, although in common with many
other dance groups we often suffer
from a shortage of men.
Recently,
more groups have been formed, and in
our immediate area we have strong
links with the French groups in Monaco,
Carpentras,
Montpellier,
Lyon,
and Grenoble
as well as the Italian groups in Imperia, Milan
and Turin.
