Line Dancing will:
1. Teach you to move rhythmically. Line dancing teaches you to actually move your body.
2. Improve your balance: teaches you how to maintain your own balance while moving to the beat.
3. Help you find the beat: Learning to find the beat and timing of any dance is critical before getting with a partner.
4. Teach you basic footwork. Learn how to do triple steps, turns and spins, rocking steps and many other steps that you will use in every form of dance.
5. Improve your confidence. Helps overcome feeling of having “two left feet”; Offers sense of pride and accomplishment and improves your coordination.
6. Provide you with a dance outlet whether you have a partner or not. Many line dances are written so that they can fit multiple songs providing you many dance opportunities, including to the radio in your own kitchen.
7. Prepare you to participate in local and regional line dnce. Every year there are regional workshops where you can dance with the choreographers, other local teachers and friends from other communities.
