The Gay Gordons (the GGs) is London's LGBT Scottish country dance club. From September 2007, members dance twice weekly on Monday and Thursday evenings at Unity Church Hall in Islington. Monday evenings are intermediate, and are for those who already know their steps; Thursday evenings are for beginners and will typically consist of some work on the basic steps, as well as five or six dances which are explained, and then danced.

Scottish country dancing is very sociable, our teacher John encourages more experienced members to partner newcomers, and everyone to change partners for each new dance. The Gay Gordons is a straight-friendly group.

Mondays (intermediate) 7-9pm, and Thursdays (beginners and social), step practice 7-7.10pm, dancing 7.10-9.10pm, £6 at Unity Church Hall, 279 Upper Street, London N1 2TZ. Angel tube or Highbury & Islington tube/rail.

Please wear soft-soled shoes, and bring a bottle of water (which can be refilled from drinking water taps in the toilets).
