During the 1970s and into the 1980s, line dancing was all the rage. While it quieted down, it’s now more popular than ever. With this, strangers can hit the dance floor and do the same moves as if they’ve known each other for years.
Some historians believe line dancing started in the 19th century when it was more of a folk-like dance that settlers enjoyed doing. As for the songs, these too have evolved to what you hear today…country music with a modern twist.
What’s line dancing?
Think of this dance style like a choreographed dance. Although there are different styles of line dancing, once you learn them, you can perform along with other people and look like a pro.
The great Alan Jackson
Jackson might be shy, even uncomfortable on stage to a certain degree, but his music is undeniably great. He loves what he does and it shows in every performance. And his songs are ideal for line dancing, especially his classic hit, “Chattahoochee.”
A spectacular video
Although you can find thousands of line dancing videos, one’s taken the internet by storm. Kicking up their heels to Jackson’s song, the all-women group is truly amazing. Wearing matching shirts, jeans, hats, and boots, they take this style to an entirely new level of fun.
Staring off
These dancers get right to it the minute the song starts. They tap their feet and then go into a more traditional line dancing move of back heel kicks. That’s followed by a couple of claps of their hands and then into some hip swivels.
An immediate reaction
Between the song, which people love, and the incredible synchronization of these dancers’ moves, people are impressed from the very beginning. But there’s a lot more to come.
On point
You can tell these gals take their line dancing seriously. With this style, it’s not uncommon for one or more people to get a little offbeat but not these women. Throughout the entire performance, they’re spot on.
They’re so fun to watch
Whether they’re facing the audience or have their backs turned away from them, they keep it real. Sometimes, they do some simple steps, and other times, those with a greater degree of difficulty. And it’s all superior.
Together on everything
Not only do they synchronize their footwork perfectly but also their arms are always doing the same thing. Even when you look at their faces, you’ll notice they’re smiling from ear to ear.
This is how you do it
If you want to see how real line dancers do it, this is the video to watch. And if you pay close attention, you can follow their steps to learn this style for yourself. Before long, you’ll be ready to get on a dance floor.
