How to Do Disco Line Dances

If you don’t know many dance steps or feel graceful enough to dance with a partner, you can still do a line dance. A line dance is a perfect way for everyone to enjoy the dance floor. Line dancing is essentially a series of steps repeated for the duration of a song. Line dancing is popular in country music but has its roots in disco. When doing a disco line dance, your main concern is the movement of your feet.
