This is a beginner/slightly intermediate class that does not increase in difficulty. It focuses on everyone meeting for community and having fun. I choreograph light and easy, short dances to 80’s through current rock/pop songs. We break them down, then rehearse them 3-4 times before doing it to music. We usually get through 4 or 5 dances in one hour. The goal is to experience the basics of line dancing with confidence, relaxation, and joy. *This program runs for 3 weeks per session on the specified dates: 3/17, 3/24, 3/31 (March Session); 4/14, 4/21, 4/28 (April Session) and 6/9, 6/16, 6/23 (June Session).
