Why learn to Line Dance, indeed? Because you’ve got rhythm, by George – and Shawn Trautman will help you find it. A partner isn’t required, line dance serves as the fundamental starting point for all dancers, and you can do it anytime, anywhere. Plus, let’s not forget the least technical but most obvious reason: Because it’s fun.
There are so many reasons to learn line dance that we hope you’ll change your question to “Why not?” Consider the following advantages of learning this versatile skill:
- It offers low-impact, bone-bearing exercise. Anyone can benefit from its coordination-building steps and gentle aerobic exertion. Instead of walking nowhere on a gym treadmill, line dancers find a social means to “move to the music” - and they get fit doing it.
- No cowboy hat is required. On that note, neither are skin-tight outfits, spurs or technical dance shoes. The unspoken rule of line dance is “Come as you are.” And during your lessons with Shawn Trautman, you can even wear a sweatsuit. He won’t tell.
- Shawn has eliminated the excuse “I don’t want to embarrass myself.” Now it’s easy to learn popular line dances like the Cotton Eyed Joe, Watermelon Crawl and Electric Slide. Close your living room curtains and create an instant private ballroom. Afterward, you can travel to a country nightclub or wedding secure in the knowledge that you’ve mastered the steps.
- Today it’s line dance, and tomorrow it’s the Cha Cha, Hustle, Waltz or Rhumba. Line dance is the starting point for all budding dancers, providing the fundamentals for many other steps and giving dancers the confidence to master all the world of dance has to offer.
