How do you express your emotions? How do show your anger, love, happiness or sorrow? The obvious answers would be, by speaking about it or making faces or even writing about it. But to some these might not be enough. As their form of expressing their feelings is through the movement of their limbs, in a simpler sense, by dancing.
Dancing is something many of us have been doing all our lives, be it striking some ridiculous moves at a party or doing some classy steps at the college ball. But today dancing is more than just some carefree movements and thoughtless steps. It has grown from a free expression to a more explosive yet controlled narration of your feelings.

It is a complete art form with professional trainers and strict routines. With a whole new line up of dance shows, everyone has been awed and inspired to learn what they see on TV.
But to some this bone breaking and perfectly pointed dance forms doesn’t make much sense as they are happy with vintage and classy dance forms that are way more easy to do and fun to perform with a whole bunch of people.
And one such dance form that is popular till date with many people, is Line Dancing. It is a simple dance form in which people dance in rows, doing same steps facing each other or in the opposite direction.

With no physical contact and is performed in places like country western dance bars, social clubs and ballrooms. This dance form has accompanied many music styles like Jazz, Rock and Roll, Swing, Pop, Latin and even Rhythm and Blues.
Besides the steps, another interesting aspect of this dance form is Line Dancing Shirts. Which usually is any simple shirt you can get your hands on but with time there has been interesting patterns and slogans being printed on shirts and t-shirts to make the look more fun and edgy.
So if you have problem finding such clothing in your grandfather’s closet, just visit sites like beyondretro, atomretro, Oxfam, rusrtyzipper, eBay or Etsy and purchase some women or mens retro clothing for the dance party. And in case you can’t find a desired shirt, try making your own Line Dancing shirts with your old t-shirts.

As it is not the purchased clothing that matters, it is the spirit to be with people and enjoy doing what you are doing completely.
As these type of dance forms are not about being out there and showing off people that you can make twenty turns in one minute, it’s about being with your loved ones and people of your community.

It is about sharing steps and spreading smiles as you move along with the slow and sometimes fast beats. It’s about being there in that atmosphere of love and carelessness.
So go on and bust some Line Dancing moves.
