Kick Up Your Heels, Scottish Country Dancing Arrives in Ryhall


Looking for a way to shake off the Monday blues? Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or someone who claims to have two left feet, there is a vibrant community waiting for you at the Ryhall Village Hall.

Starting this month and running through to June 1, 2026, residents of Ryhall, Stamford, and the surrounding areas are invited to join a weekly Scottish Country Dancing class that promises more than just a workout.

Scottish Country Dancing isn't just about the music; it’s a full-body and brain workout. Often described as "social ballroom dancing with a Celtic twist," it’s an excellent way to:

Boost Mental Agility: Learning the patterns and formations keeps your mind sharp.

Improve Fitness: It’s a gentle but effective way to get your heart rate up.

Meet New People: The class is famous for its friendly, welcoming atmosphere.

De-stress: There’s nothing like a lively jig to help you forget the workday.

One of the biggest misconceptions about country dancing is that you need a partner or years of training. Neither is required here. The classes are designed to be inclusive, and you'll find plenty of helpful hands ready to guide you through the steps.

When     Mondays, 19:00 – 21:30

Where     Ryhall Village Hall, Church Street, PE9 4HR

Cost     First class is FREE (£5 thereafter, including refreshments)

What to Wear Comfortable clothing and soft-soled shoes


The sessions occur every Monday evening. If you can't make it this week, there are plenty of opportunities to join the circle before the season ends:

  • March: 9th, 16th, 23rd, 30th

  • April: 6th, 13th, 20th, 27th

  • May: 4th, 11th, 18th, 25th

  • Grand Finale: June 1st

Pro Tip: Your first session is completely free, and that even includes refreshments during the break. It’s the perfect, low-pressure way to see if the rhythm grabs you.
