14 | OHCC LIVING | MARCH 2023 | Line Dancers Line Dancing will: 1. Teach you to dance. If you can't dance by yourself, how can you possibly expect to dance with a partner? Line dancing teaches you to actually move your body. 2. Improve your Balance: teaches you how to maintain your own balance while moving to the beat. 3. Help you Find the Beat: Oh, a big one. Staying on the beat (on time) is critical in any dance whether by yourself or with someone else. Learning to find the beat and timing of any dance is critical before getting with a partner. 4. Teach you basic footwork. Learn how to do triple steps, turns and spins, rocking steps and many other steps that you will use in every form of dance. More benefits will be discussed next month… Line dance classes are once a week: Beginner (1): Tuesdays, 10:30 – 11:30 am Improver (2): Mondays, 12:30 – 2 pm Intermediate (3): Tuesdays, 12 – 1:30 pm Want to try it out? Come on by. Beginner's class is $5 (60 minutes). Other levels are $7 (90 minutes). You do not have to be a club member for the first couple of 'try it' classes. After that you will also need to join the club. Dues are $10/year.
