Line Dancing
What is Line Dancing?
Line dancing has been around for many decades, but it really took off in the late 1970’s.
It consists of choreographed dances with a repeated sequence of steps. Groups of
people dance in one or more lines or rows all facing in the same direction or they faced
each other (contra line dancing). Everyone dances the same steps at the same time.
Many different genres of music are used, not just country music. Line dancing is open
to all ages and no partner is required. Prerequisite: a desire to learn to dance.
How do I join a club?
Many clubs exist throughout Alberta. On our web site, communitydance.org, you will
see the clubs listed in Edmonton and surrounding communities. You are welcome to
dance at multiple clubs, to help you learn. Please call the club contact to learn more
about starting to dance. They can answer your questions, and welcome you to our
activity. No special clothing is required. Please bring clean non marking shoes. We
would love to see you out on the dance floor!
