Alexandria School of Highland Dance
We offer traditional Scottish Highland Dance instruction for children and adults at all levels, based out of northern Virginia.
The Alexandria School of Highland Dance was founded in August 2020 by Anne-Marie Berens, Amy Jenkins, and Amy Shields. Our mission is to spread the joy of Highland dancing through education, performance, and competition. Contact us today to take a class, book a performance, or simply learn more about this art form.
Highland dance is the perfect mix between modern sport and traditional art form.
Originally done in times by ancient warriors, benefits of learning Highland dance include...
Build your strength and stamina: it's a workout for the brain and the body!
Forge connections with dancers from around the world: dance friends are the best friends!
Practice important life skills: confidence, discipline, goal-setting, sportsmanship, creativity
Cross-cultural connections: You definitely don't have to be Scottish to do Scottish dancing.
