Line Dance Floor Layout

 

Line Dance Wall Layout

If you are a new dancer, the instructor will usually request you take a place in the middle of the dance floor. This will help you from freaking out. There is nothing more discouraging to a new dancer than to turn to another wall and find yourself facing an empty wall with the entire class behind you. There will always be someone in front of you if you are in the center of the class. Although it is advised not to look at other
dancer´s feet while dancing, this is the exception to rule

If you have missed a step, forgotten a step, or found yourself dancing off-beat, keep moving. Fake it until you find a place in the dance or music to continue on beat. No one will notice.

Line Dancing for Seniors

Line Dancing: Points to Remember

Welcome to Steps & Beats. I hope you find line dancing as much fun and rewarding as I do. I am 76 years old and have been dancing for six years and am amazed at the improvements I see and feel in my physical, mental, and social health. Even the Covid pandemic restrictions ddn´t stop me from turning on my music and dancing at home. Sure, it was a lot more fun dancing with others, but even dancing alone instills in me a feeling of well-being, keeps me physically in shape, and permits me an on-line social media outlet with other dancers.
