Welcome To A New Look Country Roots

Hello and welcome. Yes this is a new look to our website and as we go through the rest of this year there will be more changes.

Page Reviews since 2013

The website was started in 2013 and we have people view the blog from all over the world. at the last count 16000 page reviews from world wide, because Line Dancing is truly an international movement.
OK to the dances, and there are some interesting dances this week. We have a 96 count waltz it sounds horrendous but it's not as bad as it sounds, 
 We will show some of the dances we did this week. New dance Watching Over Me  it's a nice easy dance I think it will do well at live events.
2 Lane Highway is a high Improve dance is nice, flows really well. Along with Gypsy Queen this dance will fly, it will be done in all the live events around the country
The another dance we did was I Can't Unlove you, this is the 96 count dance, another quick time waltz I think it will be nice when we can do it properly.

Hello and welcome to Country Roots
Our Beginner's Class is doing really well.

Hello welcome to  Country Roots Blog.
Due to high demand for places at the beginner class on Monday evenings this class is now closed to new members, however anyone wishing to do a refresher cause is very welcome at this class

I have been away for a few lessons, there are some dances the are new to me, If you know them that's great if you're not sure I have found some walk-through's for you. There's is also the recent dances you have done to refresh your memory. The first new dance is A Little Love Trip. This is the number one dance at the moment, so if you go to a social event this will more than likely be played. 

The next is Crazy Life  this an Intermediate dance so it would be danced after 7.30 PM again nice dance when you know the steps.
The last dance to highlight is I Know  A Guy. this is yet another Waltz. there seems to be lots of the these about at the moment. Ant way here are the videos and links to all the dances mentioned.

Country Roots Has Lots Of New Dances


Country Roots Has Lots Of New Dances

 Hello and welcome to Country Roots sorry I haven't written a blog for a while I wasn't in class. But this week we lots of new dances and some very old dances, because we have a lot of new beginners started in the early class. some of the new members haven't danced anywhere before, so it was the old standards, to help them get into understanding the beat and tempo of the dances. Ok that's enough chat there's a lot to get through, so we will start as always with the beginner's and improver's class. 

Who looks at YouTube for the walk-through's have a look at a walk-through that Margaret Gough did when the Beginner's class started one year ago. The video has been viewed nearly 8000 times. as yet I haven't looked at the rest.
 

The Alpine Dance sheet. they isn't a video of the dance

The dance is so easy you won't need a video of the dance.

Hi Welcome To Country Roots And More New Dances

The new dance machine rolls on, I will list the new dances that the improver's have learnt as well as a dance for the more advanced members. One of the improver's new dances was White Rose ( yes I know it's easy for you and me) but not if you have never seen the dance before. This is still a dance I love to do along with Toes. As I have said many time before just because it's old doesn't mean it's past the sell by date.
 Another dance they have done recently is Come Dance With Me a nice easy dance it should fit a lot of dances.
The advanced Class was taught Slip Away I think it's fair to say some people have struggled with, but it is a nice dance and when you are comfortable with the step you will enjoy the dance. Well that enough chat here are the dances for both classes.

 Improver's Class 6.00 PM Till 7.30
