What to expect as new Line
Dancer
Start with our beginners class as
this will introduce you to the basic steps, build your
confidence and give you a feel for the dances.
By the end of the first
class you should be be able to do at least one dance if
not two!!
It will be a few weeks before you begin
to feel comfortable and find yourself remembering both the
steps and the dances from the previous weeks, don't worry this
is normal and you wont be the only one...
Each week we will review past dances
with a complete walk through and learn at least one
new dance that is
completely new to everyone.
A few things to bear in mind:-
-
Don't
expect to master dances straight
off, A
s with most new
things, you need to master the basics before
moving on. If you find
yourself struggling on a dance try
sitting it out a dance and watch it instead,
its surprising how much you can
learn.
-
Never be put off by more experienced
dancers, We all had to learn at sometime!
It's your class and your time and they all know
that.
-
Come back the next week, It gets easier as the weeks go by,
before you know it you'll be dancing with the
best of them.
-
Be ready to laugh at yourself,
D
on't
be worried if it's not coming together
as fast as you'd like, it will eventually. We
have all faced the wrong way, lost track and
wondered what to do next, just watch
us i our intermediate
class and you will see it for
yourself.
-
Bring a drink, Line Dancing is a great form of
exercise, you can burn up to 800 calories during a
class and you'll get warm and need a drink!
alcohol is not receommended, you'll forget the
steps...
- Most
importantly, ENJOY
Yourself
It can be a little confusing when you first
start Line Dancing because you will hear the instuctor say
Grapevine to the right and you'll be thinking what is a
Grapevine??? Good instructors will repeatedly break these
steps into single instructions so that after a few weeks when
you hear "Grapevine" you'll find yourself doing it without
thinking about it.
