New Post on Squidoo

What got me thinking of this topic was my most recent “gig” where I taught dances to a group of non-dancers.  By “non-dancers” what I really mean is non-dance-nuts like myself.

Until recently, all of my dance teaching has been to fellow enthusiasts like myself.  Fellow dance nuts in other words!

Which means that the dances I’ve been teaching wouldn’t work for this “new” type of student.  So I did a little bit research and came up with five dances which are good for social settings like proms, parties, weddings etc.

And, since any bit of research I do now is a Squidoo article just begging to be written, I did just that:  I wrote an article.  Here is an excerpt from the introduction:

Then a miracle happens and the DJ fires up a line dance song and suddenly the floor fills up with dancers having fun. Line dancing…breaking the ice and filling dance floors since time immemorial!

Here are five, sure-fire, easy, well-known, line dances designed for the beginner dancer and/or the “non-dancer” that will get the party started and get folks “off their seats” and “on their feets!”

See ya on the dance floor!
