If every time you take one step forward, you take two steps backward...don't be discouraged you just learned how to line dance.
It's Fall Y'all. Let the dancing begin.
You don't have to know how to line dance to start. We will teach you!
Classes
Absolute Beginner/Beginner/Improver
- Absolute Beginners have not line danced before. The only prerequisite is that you know your left from your right. Absolute Beginner dance classes teach basic steps such as the GRAPEVINE, POINTS, STOMPS, SLIDES, the SHUFFLE, and the WEAVE.
- Beginners know the basics steps but need additional practice and are looking to add to their dance repertoire. Most beginner dances are 32 count dances.
- Improvers are are ready for a challenge. Improver dances can be 32 to 64 count and often include syncopation and “tags” or re-starts.
You are ready to line dance! For a chance to watch beginner or improver dances go to CopperKNOB
Hint: Please wear shoes that are comfortable, support your feet, and will slide on the dance floor. We ask you not to wear flip flops, boots with metal cleats, or high heels.
