I don't think I've told my Blogger Buddies that I took up line dancing last winter. I needed something to do in the evening and my friend Lloyd invited me to take lessons with him. It was certainly out of my comfort zone but I figured if he could do it, after all he's over 80, that I could too. It took awhile but I have come to really enjoy it. We usually take 2 lessons a week and go to dances put on by our teacher a couple times a month.
Our instructor is asked to help put on a demo at the county fair every year so we were recruited. We did 15 dances (dancing is also good for the mind, but who knew?) over a 2 hour period. There were also couple and intermediate dances in between. We had a ball! My kids all came to watch and even tho Jerzie had decided it would be 'boring', after a couple dances she wanted me to teach her how! Payton said she laughed but she wanted to learn too.
Here is a video of one of the dances. I'm in green and my friend Lloyd, is in tie dye. If you get a chance to learn I recommend it. It's great exercise and also good for a laugh!

Line dancing is such fun. I'm glad that you have continued. Such great exercise and such fun. I'm glad to see that they are continuing to do this great exercise. Thanks for sharing.
Way to go both of you.. dancing is a more fun exercise than most.
Good for you, Jean! I have always thought line dancing looked like fun. Unfortunately I have no rhythm and don't dance at all(now and then a slow dance) so I miss out on all the fun at dancing events.
Looks like fun as well as good exercise! See you for Bloomin' Tuesday!

I've always wanted to do that!!!! And to take Ballroom dancing...My hubby just laughs when I mention it :(
You do a great job at dancing. You are truly dedicated to learning the dances and I can see that you do have fun while doing them. I'm so glad to have you and Lloyd in our group. Tell your friends that everyone who has a heartbeat has rhythm and two left feet can be corrected!!! Keep dancing!!!
