Line dancing is quickly replacing aerobics as Middle
Georgias favorite way to keep fit. In this healthy
living, will tell you why you'll want to consider trading
your tennis shoes for cowboy boots. One of the most popular
dances for all ages is line dancing. Line dance instructor
Dianne Kent tells us why more and more people are using
their boots to get moving.
Dianne Kent: Line dancing is such a fun way to exercise. You
need to keep moving. Dianne Kent knows the latest dance
moves and knows how to change with the times to keep her
students happy.
Dianne Kent: Line dancing has changed so much. it is not
like achy breaking. we have waltzes, rhumbas we have
chachas, waltzes have been favorites with the people.
The number one line dance out now is the Shuffle Boogie
Soul, done to a track by Honkytonk, the song has gone viral
and is a flash mob favorite.
Students learn dances like in class and make new friends
when they go out on the dance floor.
Susan Oliver : I think line dancing is a lot of fun. It is a
great way to move to the music, it takes coordination and
concentration. Diane says the group exercise keeps couples
and singles coming back to learn more and more new
dances.
Dianne Kent: That is the beauty of line dancing, you do not
have to have a partner., so ladies can come in and learn to
dance.
Ron Smith: Line dancing is awesome, you learn all the
styles of dance and you don't even know your partner. You
can come on here, do swing, boogie, rhumba, chacha waltz all
to the music of line dancing with all your friends. Perhaps
the biggest benefit of line dancing is what it does for your
health and your spirit. Vess Jones: It is helping with my
memory and concentration, my waist is thinner, I am more
muscular, and my coordination is better.
