Line dancing Lessons – Mini video series

Move #1: The cupid shuffle move:

Text summary of the move:
The cupid shuffle is one the easiest line dance steps that you can learn. It starts with 8 counts of side steps to the right, with the last step being a touch (no weight change). Then repeat the same 8 counts to the left. Then you do 8 counts of “heel steps” in place. Lastly, you do 8 counts of stepping in place to turn 1/4 to the left. Now repeat the same steps all over facing the new wall.

Move #2: “The wobble” line dance move:

Text summary of the move:
This move starts with a jump forward and wigling/grooving then you jump back and again wigling/grooving in place. Then you wobble your hands to the left and then wobble your hands – you can put your own style into it! Then you will do a simple cha cha step where you fowrwad, back and cha cha cha in place, Again – forward, back and cha cha cha in place. From there you are just going to do rhythmical steps in place to turn and face another wall. Then you start all over again.

Move #3: The cowboy boogie

Text summary of the move:
This line dancing step starts with a “grapevine” step to the right (side, behind and side) with a “hitch” (knee up) at the end. Then repeat the same “grapevine” step to the left and do the hitch again. Then 1 step forward and hitch, 1 step foward and hitch. Now you step back for 3 counts and hitch at the end. Then you going to “boogie” with the hips, which just means you going to do a small hip movement forward and back, then you turn 1/4 turn to face the new wall and hitch. Then do the same steps facing the new wall.

To help your line dancing, you may also want to learn how to country dance. Furthermore, Ballroom dance lessons will also help you to develop balance and coordination.

Tips for getting better better in Line dancing:

1. Learn the counts. Line dancing is not hard when you can count the entire choreography as you do it. Each single step, hip movement, or wobble has to be timed to the music.

2. Distinguish between a “step” and a “touch”. A step is when you change your weight on the foot and a touch is when you do not change weight on the foot. Touches are very commonly used to switch directions so make sure you know when its a touch versus a step.

3. The magic is in between the steps. While the steps and the counts are set, the way you dance in between is what counts. Put your own style into the steps. You can do many different things with your hips, upper torso and arms to stand out.

You can divide all the dancing into 2 groups: partner and line dancing, and what follows here is a good round-up of the most popular and easiest beginner line dances out there.

Learn some of these and you’ll be set to get out on the dance floor every time you go out! Starting with the most common and easiest and working down… But all these are very beginner line dances.

1. Cupid Shuffle

Count: 32Wall: 4Level: Very Beginner

Choreography: Bernard Bryson (Cupid)
Music: Cupid Shuffle by Cupid

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
Cupid Shuffle was choreographed by the singer Cupid and created simultaneously with his song The Cupid Shuffle that was recorded in 2006. When he set out to create it, it was with the exact intention of creating a line dance classic without genre, that everyone could dance to. He came up with the dance in the studio while making up the song.

That is all history! While the song isn’t a country song, this line dance has to be my lead off, since its arguably the most popular and one everyone has danced to (at bars, weddings, schools). It is particularly easy since the lyrics tell you what to do next! “To the right, to the right, to the right, to the right… To the left, to the left, to the left, to the left… Now kick…” so, no excuses, you can do this! But download the step sheet if you are worried!

2. Wobble

Count: 32Wall: 4Level: Beginner

Choreography: V.I.C. Brentnell
Music: Wobble by V.I.C.

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
The Wobble is another non-country line dance that is about as popular as the Cupid Shuffle. And another line dance created by the musical artist! Its very fun and always a crowd-pleaser. It is very common to see people doing the Wobble at weddings and parties as well as a local country bar where it is sure to get everyone out on the dance floor. The Wobble can get a little long though with the song lasting over 5 minutes. A lot of jumping!

3. Electric Slide

Count: 18Wall: 4Level: Beginner

Choreography: Ric Silver (1976)
Music: Electric Boogie by Marcia Griffiths
(with scores of alternates, including Achy Breaky Heart by Billy Ray Cyrus and Fast As You by Dwight Yoakam)
Step Sheet: Click here to download.
While the Electric Slide was originally choreographed in 1976, it was Marcia Griffiths song Electric Boogie that gave it popularity. It was in 1989 when it really took off and for ten years was listed as the number one dance in the world! Today there are many songs used to dance the Electric Slide to. Achy Breaky Heart is a popular go-to at a country bar, but so many others work great. It is simple enough here’s the steps:

1. Grapevine right. Take one step right with your right foot.
2. Grapevine left. Take one step left with your left foot.
3. Rock forward and back with a toe-touch. Step back with your right foot, then bring your left foot to meet it.
4. Quarter-turn left and begin again…

It’s pretty easy (once you know it!). I’ve only known the Electric Slide for a couple of years and I did need a video to get that rock, toe touch, and quarter-turn all timed right. Another great thing about line dancing, especially with an easy one like the Electric Slide is that, as you get good, you can “play” adding in turns, etc. to have fun, make it your own and show-off a little on the dance floor.

4. Power Jam (San Diego Version)

Count: 24Wall: 4Level: Beginner

Choreographer: Lynn Bryant
Music: American Muscle by Canaan Smith
(and countless others!)
Step Sheet: Click here to download.
Power Jam is a pretty common call-out and is aptly named. It’s pretty fast-paced and the slides and heal taps and then the hop at the end that most people do is all great fun. This is a good one to get under your belt and a live band is for sure going to have some songs for it.

There are a couple of slight variations I’ve noticed with Power Jam. Firstly, for the first two heel-taps to the front and toe-taps to the back, most people just do one tap and hold it for the extra beat. Secondly, at the end of the dance instead of the little hop, you can also just stomp the left foot.

5. Cowboy Hustle

Count: 32Wall: 4Level: Beginner

Choreographer: Unknown
Music: What the Cowgirls Do by Vince Gill

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
Cowboy Hustle is another great fun, fast and easy line dance not too unlike the Power Jam. In fact, I’ve been confused and switched these for each other at times. They both tap out the right heel forward and behind, so watch out for that! Like the Power Jam, Cowboy Hustle can go with many songs and will get called out commonly.

6. House Party

Count: 24Wall: 4Level: Beginner

Choreographer: Jessica Short and Kerry Kick (2014)
Music: House Party by Sam Hunt

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
House Party is a favorite one at The Ranch in Anaheim and after all, it is co-choreographed by Kerry Kick one of the weekly instructors there. It has a very current feel, danced to Sam Hunt’s song House Party. It feels like a lot of spinning to me since besides two step-turns there are 4 turns and shuffles (to make the four walls of the house!) But its always a fun one with a full floor. During those 4 turns and shuffles people hold up and touch their hands to look like a house, kind of reminds me of YMCA!

7. Watermelon Crawl

Count: 40Wall: 4Level: Beginner / Intermediate

Choreographer: Sue Lipscomb
Music: Watermelon Crawl by Tracy Byrd

Step Sheet: Click here to download
Watermelon Crawl is a beginner/intermediate, but is also super common and popular and a lot of fun. One small tip to learning this one that helped me was to just ignore the two 1/2 turns at the end of the dance just wait for everyone to stop turning and you’ll be a little more ready to start the beginning of the dance again with everyone.

The fun part of this dance, of course, is the stepping out to the right and then sliding back. I think that part is supposed to be the watermelon crawl.” And the song, of course, has a good message: “If you drink, don’t drive…do the watermelon crawl.” Click on the video below to see Ranch dance instructor Shelly Graham demo the dance!

8. Black Velvet

Count: 40Wall: 1Level: Beginner

Choreographer: Linda De Ford
Music: Black Velvet by Robin Lee

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
Black Velvet is also a very common line dance and while a beginner line dance, this one was pretty intimidating to me at first. This line dance was my first exposure to “contra” line dances. Contra line dances are dances where every other line of dancers is facing the opposite direction, or the lines start facing each other and then move past each other.

It can be a lot of fun since typically there’s a lot of high-fives happening as you glide past your friends. But for the beginner, it looks pretty messed up.

Who do you follow? The people to your left and right are faced opposite you! So, just look to the next row at the person going in your direction and follow them! This ends up being really fun and it actually is pretty easy! Check out the video or download the step sheet to give it a try.

Boot Scootin’ Boogie

Count: 32Wall: 4Level: Beginner

Choreographer: Tom Mattox & Skippy Blair
Music: Boot Scootin’ Boogie by Brooks & Dunn

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
Boot Scootin’ Boogie is actually a line dance not often seen in So. Cal. but is one I wish was. While I’m a recent convert to the country dance scene, I’m a long-time country music fan and I had wondered, “Hey, what about Brooks & Dunn’s Boot Scootin’ Boogie?” I wondered if there was a line dance for a great classic that talks about line dancing! Well, sure enough, there is! In fact on the Copperknob website, there are 3 pages of step sheets to different versions of dances to the song!

If you love Brooks & Dunn as much as me and you want to have this one under your belt. On YouTube Bill Bader’s version is pretty common but in So. Cal. I’ve only seen people dance the Tom Mattox & Skippy Blair version. They both are 32 counts, but this one’s more of a beginner line dance.

10. Two-Step (line dance)

Count: 16Wall: 4Level: Very Beginner

Choreographer: Robert Royston – Dance Y’All Crew (2013)
Music: Two-Step by Laura Bell Bundy featuring Colt Ford

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
The Two-Step line dance is not to be confused with the Two-Step partner dance! As explained in the video below from “Dancin’ with Patti” this is from the music video by Laura Bell Bundy found on YouTube. With only 16 counts this is a very beginner line dance. Reminds me a little of the Cupid Shuffle.

Fun fact: Robert Royston also more recently choreographed the line dance seen in Midland’s Mr. Lonely music video. So, another music video that people have now learned a line dance from.

11. Good Time

Count: 48Wall: 4Level: Improver

Choreographer: Jenny Cain
Music: Good Time by Alan Jackson

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
Good Time, you’ll notice is actually not considered a beginner line dance! But it is very common and if you stick with it I think you’ll get it down pretty quick. The highlight to me is the toe-taps & rolling grapevines, first to right and then repeated (mirrored to the left).

Fun fact: In Alan Jackson’s music video of Good Time it shows him singing out on the road and trying to set the record for the longest line dance. 22 miles long it says at one point! There are different opinions about whether it’s true or not, some say it was a real honest attempt, but falls short of the actual record set in China. Please leave a comment if you know the real facts!

Linda Lu is also another super common line dance called out and at 48 counts is aptly called by Copperknob an upper-beginner/intermediate line dance. This isn’t a favorite of mine w/ the “out-outs,” “in-ins.” Maybe it’s just me!

13. My Maria

Count: 32Wall: 4Level: Beginner / Intermediate

Choreographer: Mike Camara & Dan Albro (1996)
Music: My Maria by Brooks & Dunn (a Cha-Cha at 136BPM)

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
My Maria is another beginner / intermediate, but at 32 counts not too hard. This is a great line dance to another great classic Brooks & Dunn song. The unique thing is that it is a Cha-Cha line dance. The Shuffles between alot of the steps are 3 steps: Cha-Cha-Cha. The pivot-hooks are a lot of fun too.

Rock Me is my favorite line dance! I am a big Darius Rucker fan and his song Wagon Wheel is a great song. The rocking steps choreographed to “Rock Me” throughout the dance is pretty cool. I don’t see it called every night but it should be! So good!

16. Slappin’ Leather

Choreographer: Gayle Brandon (California modified version, 2016)
Music: Footloose by Kenny Loggins and Blake Shelton (alt: T.R.O.U.B.L.E. by Travis Tritt)
Step Sheet: Click here to download.
Slappin’ Leather
is a very famous line dance that is considered a beginner dance. You can dance this to the Footloose song from the movies, but the movies actually didn’t have Slappin’ Leather as part of their choreography. The Footloose movie features the more advanced line dance Fake ID. Click here to go to my post that talks all about that.

Slappin’ Leather has a part in it (the Slappin’ Leather part!) that seems pretty intermediate and takes some coordination! But the dance is just too fun and famous not to include it here. This dance is going to pretty much get called almost every night depending on the club your at. There are many variations of it throughout the world, but the step sheet and the video here are the So. Cal. version.

Fun Fact: Slappin’ Leather was used in an episode of the TV Show Pretty Little Liars.

Tush Push has been called the most popular line dance in the United States for the last 20 years! There’s a great story about how Jim Ferrazzano came up with the dance over a period of time, to check it out click here. One thing interesting is that it’s kind of 2 dances in one. This is because it was only 1/2 written for months. When completed, the final steps were cha-cha steps setting them apart from the first part of the dance.

Note: When you download the Step Sheet you’ll notice there are 6 options included on the 2nd page!

20. Ten-Step

Count: 18Wall: 0Level: BeginnerLine / Partner

Choreographer: Unknown
Music: Devil Went Down to Georgia by the Charlie Daniels Band

Step Sheet: Click here to download.
The Ten-Step is actually not a line dance! The Ten-Step would really be considered a partner dance. As such, you can dance it with a partner, but it is commonly danced individually and so much fun that I wanted to include it. It is also easy! Like most partner dances it is danced in a circle (counter-clockwise) on the dance floor.

One common song to hear when it is called is Devil Went Down to Georgia. The beat is fast and its a lot of fun when the band speeds up the tempo toward the end to challenge both the fiddle player and the dancers to keep up, ’til, of course, they can’t!

So, if dancing with a partner, you do so in the sweetheart position or just holding hands. But, if individually you get the fun option to spin during the shuffle steps that occur between the “10-step” part. (altogether it is an 18 count dance).

And if by chance you watch the video below taken at the Cowboy Palace in Chatsworth and struck by the particular magic and charm of this scene click here to read the recounting of my experience there. It truly is an awesome country dance bar.

Some Beginning Line Dancing Basics

So there it is! My list of what I think are 20 of the easiest and also popular line dances out there right now. In addition to the dances themselves here’s a little more information about line dancing if you’re new to all this and a little confused about what is happening out there on the floor–I know I was!

A couple of things to know about if you’re new! Line dances are typically 16, 32, 40 or 48 steps (based on the level of difficulty) You may have noticed these numbers are all divisible by 8! Most popular music has a 4/4 time signature, but dancers count beats in sets of 8, hence line dance choreography is grouped and taught in sets of 8 or with “8-count.

Next (and the other major thing), line dances are known for having one, two or four walls. A one-wall dance means everyone will face in the same direction when all steps are performed. A two-wall line dance is when at the end of each sequence of steps everyone has turned 180º and you begin again facing the back — for these dances, you will always just face the “front” and “back” walls. Then, with a four-wall line dance (the most difficult), at the end of the steps, everyone has turned 90º and “begins the dance” again facing one of the “side” walls. As the dance progresses you will keep finishing and starting again facing a new wall.

TIP: When first learning and taking a class it is tempting to hide in the last row! But as you may have already guessed, that’s a bad idea! As soon as the dance has moved on to the back wall, if you were in the back, you are now in the front! You can’t see anyone and everyone is looking at you! So, find a good spot somewhere in the middle and you’ll be able to always watch someone who knows what they are doing!

With 20 line dances to learn and a couple of basics, you are ready to get involved in this fun activity. Like anything else in life, it takes some just plain jumping headlong in and learning as you go!

Turned the game into a 💩

Used to play this game… it was just space… no ads cool graphics, all levels are available…!!! And now... it's not clear how to open the levels... after each click - advertising... I don't even want to go back to the game... if you agree, consider this comment useful...

Game ruined💩💩💩

2 years ago this game was just perfect. At least it was offline and without ads, all levels opened in order, there was nothing to complain about. Now it's just impossible to play. After that, advertising is turned on at every step, you can play only with the Internet (TO ADVERTISEMENTS WORK OF COURSE). For example, on an airplane, this game cannot be played. To pass the level, after each failure, you need to watch this terrible advertisement, which makes the passage of the level many times longer. Now this is not a game but just an application to get stress. I usually never write reviews, but this application (I don’t even want to call it a game) really upset me and pissed me off, I no longer want to play. I DO NOT RECOMMEND DOWNLOADING THIS IF ADVERTISING HAPPENS YOU

What is an alternative milonga

Traditional Argentine tango has brought to the lives of many people not only TANGO as a dance, but also a new culture of behavior at a dance evening. In a traditional milonga, everything is organized very logically and structured. There are codigos, a list of unwritten, and now written rules. An invitation with a glance, structure of melodies by tandas, cortinas and much more. Everything is clear and international.

I can only assume that such a milonga organization has never been the only one. Even in the classic milongas of Buenos Aires, you can find different formats that do not comply with strict canons, as we are used to in Russia. The main purpose of such rules has always been the convenience of the dancers. Traditions and rituals are long gone. At the forefront is the popularity of the milonga and the visitors. nine0005

With the growing popularity of alternative milongas, the question arises more and more whether it is appropriate to change the classical organization of milongas. What is reasonable and convenient, and what has long become an anachronism. Can it be attributed to sexism that only a man has the right to invite. Where is the dividing line between the tandas, and are cortinas needed. What can and cannot be danced in a milonga, hiding behind authenticity and your understanding of neotango or tango nuevo.

The new tango technique opened Pandora's box, which contained an incredible amount of music for the updated dance. Tracks for alternative milongas can no longer be easily sorted into three folders: saloon, waltz and milonga. Often, one performer can find only one song to which you can dance tango nuevo. Accordingly, compiling a tanda becomes a super-difficult task. Unfortunately, some alternative DJs simply refuse to do tandas, but we will discuss this below. nine0005

How can I tell if I can dance to a particular track? After all, it is obvious that dance music is focused on dancers, and not on listeners in the auditorium. Once upon a time, it was extremely difficult to dance under Astor Piazzolla even at a professional level. The dance technique has grown to the height of the complexity of the music and the tracks appeared in the playlist of tango DJs. In this case, the "danceability" criterion should be at the forefront.

When I see doubt in the eyes of milonga visitors about how the track I suggested can be performed in tango nuevo, then I just go to the dance floor and show that everything is real. For these purposes, among other things, I regularly post videos where I improvise to music uncharacteristic of tango. Tango nuevo at an alternative milonga is always an experiment and a search for a new visual sound of the dance. This is not a recipe for a traditional milonga under the already native DiSarli or D'Arienza. nine0005

Historic moment of video learning

The spread of video cameras in the 90s of the last century had a significant impact on the popularity of dance culture. This has happened in many dance styles. In a short moment of time, breaking and hip-hop entered the mass audience. Salsa has gained worldwide fame. Dances such as the Argentine tango and the Lindy Hop were revived.

The main reason was that dancers who couldn't be featured on TV made video tutorials or videos from battles and parties were recorded. This made it possible to unify the basic technique, show cool examples of performance and give the opportunity to train independently at home. nine0005

Educational videos of the 90s and 00s differ little in their ideology from the very primitive training with which we started. Most of the video courses were based on the fact that a couple of dancers or one teacher showed the figures and offered to repeat after them. At a certain period, this was even a profitable business, since exclusive information on video cassettes could allow teachers to study the material on their own and teach in groups already for money. And for professional athletes in ballroom dancing, it made it possible to study the technique of top dancers in depth. nine0009

The most classic and primitive training format is the “repeat after me” principle

Internet invasion of the industry

But the limited probability of the figures themselves and the basic technique led to the ceiling of the possibilities of this format. And the openness of the emerging Internet and video hosting devalued exclusivity. It has become easy and free to get information about any figures. But, as it turned out, this is still not enough to learn how to dance. Yes, there are many instructional videos on the Internet. But there are two factors that do not allow you to get a quality result: consistency and motivation. nine0005

You type in a search request to learn a particular dance and get a huge number of links. What to do? Where to start? What is the logic of this or that dance culture? There are more questions than answers. And the idea comes back again that it is impossible to learn to dance from a video, and that the art of dancing can only be passed from hand to hand.

What dances to dance in the alternative milonga

Freedom differs from anarchy in the limits of another person, which we can violate. Choosing to dance tango, we want to dance tango. Choosing the leisure time of the milonga, we come to the space where tango is danced. Tango nuevo is open to experimentation, but not to the substitution of one for the other. There is no need to hide behind the openness of modern tango and start performing contact improvisation or blues, and even more so hustle on the dance floor. Everything has its place. Tango nuevo has an open but well-defined style and manner. At the very least, neotango and tango nuevo choreography is based on the basic ideas of traditional tango. nine0005

In addition, unlike other couple dances, tango nuevo, like traditional tango, has a line of dance. Bachata or Cuban salsa dancers dance on the spot, linear styles have a slot. All these geometric constructions cannot coexist on the same dance floor.

Styles are often mixed up by those who cannot or do not know how to dance this or that dance. Or does not fully understand the possibilities of improvisation within the main style.

Alternative milongas are gaining popularity in Russia. While the format has not frozen, there is an opportunity to create and test it more meaningfully.
