If you have never tried this before, please be patient – it will probably take a few weeks before you start to feel you are making any progress.  Imagine learning a new song.  It takes time, and practice, before you know the tune and all the words by heart.  Learning a dance is just the same.

In line dancing some of the steps come in groups, each with its own name.  Don't worry!  We go over them slowly.  Once you have a grasp of the basic moves, learning new dances will become easier.  No-one will mind going over it a few more times (there are probably others in the room also glad to have more practice before we move on!).

All forms of dance are terrific exercise and can lift your spirits with a shot of adrenaline.  Line dancing is no different.  It is very good for you physically, mentally and spiritually.  It can help keep joints supple and build up strength in your leg muscles; it benefits the heart & lungs; memorising the step patterns exercises your brain; and it is good fun! 

Line dancing is supported by a number of medical charities like the British Heart Foundation and National Osteoporosis Society.  It's also a great way of making new friends – and you don't even need a partner.

We have line dance classes all over Cardiff, including Llanishen, offering a variety of options:  different levels of instruction; varied choice of music (did you know that besides some great rocking country music tracks, songs by artists like Ricky Martin, Westlife, Lulu, Nat King Cole, Tom Jones, Van Morrison are also found in line dancing?).  Go along and sample a few and find one that suits you.

One final word - BEWARE!!!  Line dancing can become very addictive!
