Bruce began Scottish country dancing in1967, at college, and immediately fell in love with it. He is particularly fond of its simultaneous power and elegance, and also its music. He was one of the founding teachers of the San Diego Branch, and moved to Mountain View in 1976. Bruce and his wife Jo have trained several of our local teachers, and occasionally teach workshops outside the Bay Area.
Bruce also loves and teaches English dance -- country, morris, and sword. He is a founding member of the Deer Creek Morris Men, a regular participant in The Christmas Revels, and serves on the board of the Country Dance and Song Society, the umbrella organization for English dancing in North America.
By day, Bruce is a computer scientist at Hewlett-Packard. He doesn't have any hobbies besides dancing -- not enough nights in the week!
