Line Dance Etiquette
A List of Dance floor Tips
​
​
Never walk through a line of dancers to cross the floor - always walk around the floor or wait.
​
​
Never come onto the dance floor carrying drinks, glasses or cans.
​
​
Don't stay on the floor to talk - if the music has started, go off the dance floor to chat.
​
​
When dancing near beginners, be mindful and courteous.
​
​
Don't start a different dance, unless there is plenty of room and you sense it is acceptable.
​
​
If the floor is crowded, take small steps, enjoy the company but watch for collisions.
​
​
If you should bump into someone, it is customary to apologize whether it is your fault or not.
​
​
Don't be tempted to stop dancing to teach, especially if there is no room.
​
​
Remember everyone was once a beginner, if you can already dance, do try to be helpful to newcomers.
​
​
When starting off the dance, go to the front so that others can fall in behind you.
​
​
And finally, keep your head up, keep smiling and enjoy yourselves.
