Popular 2014 Country Line Dances in Arizona


How well do you know your line dances? If you've been to a Country bar recently (or ever, for that matter) you've probably seen your fair share of Two Stepping, Swing Dancing, and Line Dancing. Here in Arizona, we've got plenty of Country bars and plenty of Line Dances to learn. We've spent our Summer at Dance FX Studios in Mesa, Arizona teaching some of the most popular line dances out there to help get you guys out on the dance floor. Not sure which ones you need to know to fit in? Here's our top 5 list with our go-to standbys and some newer additions:

1. Copperhead Road - Steve Earle

This one's pretty easy. Don't let it fool you though - you'll get a definite workout with all the jumps and kicks! Head on over to Cactus Moon at Mesa Riverview and give it a shot. They've got a nice big floor with plenty of room, so you don't have to worry about accidentally kicking anyone.

 

2. Fake ID - Big and Rich

Fake ID is pretty new, but you can't go to a Country bar without it playing at least once. This dance is tricky, so it'll take some time to pick it up. With patience, you can be out there with the best of 'em!

 

3. Boot Scootin' Boogie - Brooks & Dunn

An oldie, but a goodie! Boot Scootin' Boogie has been around for ages. Not too hard and definitely worth learning if you don't know it already. Throw on your favorite boots, swing by Toby Keith's, and get to scootin'!

 

4. Footloose - Blake Shelton

Footloose has been around for a while, but it remains popular to this day. It's another challenging one, so commit some extra time to learning it before heading out! You can probably catch it at Denim and Diamonds if you're there on a busy night.

 

5. Whiskey Drinkin' - Mikel Knight

Whiskey Drinkin' has been around for a few years and there are a few variations of this particular line dance. There are simple, intermediate, and advanced versions, so don't be afraid to learn it and get out there. Stop by Dance FX Studios in Mesa, AZ this Friday at 6 PM to learn this one. Drop ins are only $7, so you can get comfy before you try this one out and about.

Now, there are plenty of other line dances for you to learn that aren't on that list. In fact, we teach a new line dance every Friday night! If there's a dance in particular that you want to learn, feel free to shoot us an email at info@dancefxstudios.com and let us know. We'll be sure to put it in the rotation. Want to get some more skills in your partner dancing, too? We also have awesome Two-Step and Country Swing group classes and private dance lessons. We're just off the 60 and the 101 with easy access to most of the greater Phoenix area, so check us out and let's get to dancing!
