The School program includes the workshops in all styles of Scottish Dancing: Scottish Country Dancing, Highland dancing, Ladie's step and Cape Breton Dancing. The workshops will be taught by the best teachers from the whole world. We also invite you to participate in Highland Dancing competitions (according to the SOBHD rules) and in the competition of the SCD Demonstration teams. In addition, there will be course and exams for the RSCDS Teaching Certificate Part 1 (Units 2 & 3).
With rich history, deep culture and strong economic influence, Kazan holds the title of "The Third Capital of Russia" (after Moscow and Saint Petersburg). By many measures, Kazan has the one of the highest standards of living in Russia. Located between Europe and Asia, having both Russian and Tatar populations, Kazan peacefully blends Muslim and Christian cultures. This vibrant city with over 1000 years of history is an excellent travel destination, and the number of tourists visiting is rapidly increasing every year.
