A little about FUSTA.

FUSTA was established in 1980 to promote Scottish Highland Dancing and culture in the US and to provide a “community” system for teachers and judges of Highland dancing.  FUSTA spearheads the US Inter-Regional Championships (SUSIR) held annually.  This championship rotates among the 6 geographic regions which encompass of 50 states.  FUSTA also supports on-going education for teachers and judges and acts as a resource center in the US for all aspects of Highland dancing.
