https://www.churchinaquitaine.org/A friendly way to start the weekend! Come as you are, no need for a partner. Scottish Country Dance ranges from very easy dances to mind-challenging ones. The two hours start off with all-level teaching (aimed primarily at beginners), then move on to intermediate and advanced.
Teaching is in French, but every formation is walked through even if you don’t speak French - and many in the group will be happy to speak English.
Every Friday at 7pm from September to June. Check our website for precise dates and times and also updates on our tariffs.

Our guest speaker, Alfred de MONTESQUIOU, born in 1978, is a French journalist and author. A Sciences Po graduate, Alfred de Montesquiou also earned a Master’s degree from the Columbia Journalism School. He worked for many years as a war correspondent for the Associated Press, and in 2010 became a senior reporter for Paris Match. He currently produces Les Envahisseurs for France Culture and teaches reporting at Sciences Po.
Alfred de Montesquiou has received several prestigious awards, including the Prix Albert Londres (2012), and recently the Prix Renaudot de l’Essai for his latest book on the Nuremberg Trial, Le Crépuscule des hommes. Alfred de Montesquiou will speak about the trial, a turning point that would later shape the international criminal justice system, as seen through the eyes of leading figures of the international press—particularly British correspondants—and as described in his book, where passion, cynicism, realpolitiks, and hope are intertwined.
