The BORDER CELTS are a contemporary Step and Reel dance team that bring to the modern world and ancient form of dance from the Picts of the Highlands of Scotland, that dates back to the 5th century.

Described by 'PLINI the Younger' a Roman Historian of the times as "a dance like training in order to battle" these ritual dance steps and movements were performed at times of celebrations and to honour the seasons.

Proud members of the Scottish Association the Celts wear the "BLACK WATCH TARTAN" traditionally worn by the Border Rogues and their motto is "ALLEGIANCE TO NONE".

Established in 1999, the Celts perform at a wide variety of cultural events and fesitvals throughout the year and since 2006 feature 'an Ghille M'hor our Jacobite Broadsword dancers who perform the next recorded form of dance in Scottish history.
