1. Provides Comfort and Security: Sleeping next to your partner can make you feel comfortable, secure, and loved. Feeling the warmth of their body next to yours can create a sense of intimacy and closeness that can be hard to replicate in any other setting.

2. Reduces Stress and Anxiety: Sleeping next to someone you trust and care about can help you feel less stressed and anxious. The presence of your partner can help regulate your breathing and heart rate, leading to a more restful and peaceful sleep.

3. Encourages Better Sleep: When you sleep next to your partner, you may experience fewer disruptions during the night. Studies have shown that couples who sleep together often have more consistent sleep patterns, fall asleep faster, and sleep longer than those who sleep alone.

4. Promotes Emotional Bonding: Sleeping next to your partner can promote emotional bonding and help you feel more connected to one another. This can lead to a stronger, healthier relationship overall.


Sleeping next to your partner can be a positive and rewarding experience. It can bring you closer together, improve your sleep quality, and promote overall health and wellbeing.

The workshop will run for 8 weeks for a cost of $30, which is deductible from a modest annual membership fee. At the end of the 8 week course you will be able to continue dancing on club nights. The workshop is to teach you the basic steps and formations to get you started. You don't need to be : fit or be Scottish or wear special clothing (loose fitting is ideal so you can move freely and soft-soled shoes are recommended - not trainers as they are too "grippy" on the wooden floor) and age is no barrier. Perhaps the children are now old enough to look after themselves for a few hours each Wednesday night to allow you to do something for yourself. It is a great way of making life-long friends and having fun, given the emphasis for Scottish Country Dancing is being social.
