Scottish Highland Dance is a combination of strength, agility, movement, music, and costume, and is thus considered both an art form and a sport. It is known as one of the most athletic forms of dance, making it an amazing aerobic and anaerobic workout – A 4-Step Highland Fling is thought to burn the same amount of calories as a 1-mile run. It is a great way to develop good coordination, posture and overall muscle tone, aerobic capacity and strength, as well as self confidence, discipline, and precision.
While many of the dances are hundreds of years old, competitive Scottish Highland Dancing was not developed until the 19th and 20th centuries, largely due to Queen Victoria’s initiative to promote Scottish Culture. Scottish immigration helped spread Highland Dancing across the world, and now Highland Dance events are held throughout the United States, Canada, Scotland, Australia, and New Zealand.
