This link will take you to the official Village line dance site. It gives all the information about line dancing in the villages, including classes. But the line dance classes you see in the square are called Exercise in Disguise, used to be known as Giggles and Shakes.

By the way, it's only 41 degrees here this morning, too cold for dancing outside!

Well, thank goodness, we are not doing any of that weather and we have warmed up to 75 in my front yard where the thermometer is located - but it is in the sun!!! The real local temperature is 63 - not too hard to take.

The site I posted for you is a great site and I think you will find everything and anything you could want to do with line dancing in TV. Did you know we have a winter resident Brit who teaches here?

Carol Simmons

Carol Simmons hails from England and divides her year between The Villages and the UK. From November to May, Carol teaches at Hibiscus Recreation Center on Monday and Pimlico Recreation Center on Wednesday. She also teaches at Oxford Community Center in Oxford from 3:30-5:30 p.m. on Sunday. Carol hosts monthly line dance socials at Oxford Community Center. From May to November, Carol holds line dance classes in England, where she is a certified member of the United Kingdom Alliance of Professional Teachers of Dancing and Kindred Arts (UKA) and of the Best Western Dance Academy (BWDA). Carol and Sandra Speck have choreographed Hanging Out In Florida and Gotta Love to Boogie, and she and Christine Bass have choreographed Feet To The Rhythm. Carol says she started dancing almost as soon as she learned to walk, enjoying tap, jazz, jive, salsa and ballroom classes through the years. Her American mother (also a Villager) taught line dancing in Orlando, and Carol started teaching as a substitute for her Mom and got hooked. Carol also has taught at Midnight Rodeo in Ocala and at The Tampa Bay Linedance Classic. When she's not line dancing, Carol enjoys clogging, playing the electric organ, golfing, bowling and dining out.
