lately, 'Heartfirst', what does it take to come up with your own line dance.

You have choreographed several line dances, esp. The music today in my opinion a tad harder to choreograph/teach line dances to because many of the songs have places in the music where you need to add tags and restarts to the dances - Dancers sometimes get frustrated with that but, it is what it is, and you just go with the flow because change happens every day whether we are on board with it or not. Is there a difference between the line dances that was done say at Cowboys in the 90s to today's line dances and what, if any differences?Ī HUGE difference indeed - Today, we teach line dances to all genres of music, not just country music.

It brings a Huge Smile to my face when I see people enjoying themselves. I ask myself that very same question every day : ) - Just kidding - I LOVE my job and have met sooooooooo many wonderful people in the line dance community. You teach often even today, what keeps you still doing it?

Wow! Tough question for sure - *Day of the Dead* - choreographed by Dan Albro to the song, 'Day of the Dead' by Wade Bowen / *Gypsy Queen* - choreographed by Hazel Pace to the song, 'Gypsy Queen' by Chris Norman / *Lonely Drum* choreographed by Darren Mitchell to the song, 'Lonely Drum' by Aaron Goodvin. What are your top 3 favorite line dances to teach ever (and song for it)? I really do not have a favorite club and/or venue because I enjoy and love teaching line dance - As long as I am dancing', I am a Happy Dancin' Tweety Girl. What club or venue is or way your favorite place to teach and why? I started line dancing when I was 37 years old in Maryland - Moved to Louisiana in 1997 where I started teaching at Franco's Fitness Club then moved to Georgia in 1999 - I have been teaching almost 27 years - I am now 64, soon to be 65 in May - Medicare and Social Security here I come : ) Leslie, you have been line dance teaching for years now?
