Your First Steps: (for those new to line dancing)
Line dancing is a choreographed type of dancing
When you step out a line dance you are following a sequence of steps that have been arranged by a choreographer
When you start off at the beginner class. it is the task of the instructor not only to teach the dances and to boost your confidence, but just as importantly, to also teach you at least the basic step sequence. Of course teaching these step sequences is usually done as part of teaching a dance
I teach in blocks of 6 or 8 counts (6 beat or 8 beat phrased dances). A beginner dance is usually 32 counts
A few tips I give to my beginners:
Be Patient: Don’t expect to be dancing with the best of them after just one lesson. It doesn’t matter how long it takes – you will get there
Practice! Practice! Practice! Practice may not make perfect, but it will increase your confidence and help you learn a dance
Don’t be afraid to ask for help: You are paying the Instructor to teach you how to line dance and I am here to help you
Proper footwear is important: Shoes that are comfortable and provide just the right amount of traction (Grip) is essential
