Line dancing is exactly what its name implies: people
dancing in lines to music. Line dances are choreographed dances with a
repeating series of steps that are performed in unison by a group of people in
lines or rows, most often without the dancers making contact with one another.
Basic line dances focus on movements of the legs and feet, with more advanced
dances including the arms and hands. The movements of a line dance are marked
as "counts" where one count generally equals one musical beat, with a
particular movement or step taking place at each beat. But don't be intimidated
at the sound of counting out choreographed steps! It all comes much more
naturally than you would think. Also, a little wine never hurts! Happy hour
priced drinks will be available. Participants are encouraged to wear shoes that
slide instead of gym shoes. Join in on the fun as we learn the choreography for
some of the most popular line dances. You and other participants won't be able
to resist showing off these routines at the next neighborhood gathering or
party at the clubhouse.
Purpose: Learn some basic line dances over drinks (drinks
optional)
