Bonnie Bellydance 18 - 20th September 2026
We ran this for the first time last year and it was an amazing weekend with a very ’Scottish’ feel. Our hotel is on the shores of a Scottish Loch …… in which some mad bellydancers did an early morning dip on Sunday ….. purely optional!!! Your teachers: me (Kay Taylor), Moyra Banks, Shona McNeil and our guest teacher Barbara Oriental.
