Well, we certainly had a great weekend at the beautiful Opryland Hotel that is bigger than the rest of Tennessee. All they need is a landing strip and people movers and we would probably just stay there forever. LOL. It is a beautiful setting for a dance event as you will see from some of the pictures -- but enough about real estate and let's get to the important stuff. There were a lot of enthusiastic dancers who showed up for this first-ever dedicated social line dance event taking place at Worlds (at least in this format). I think almost every line dance event director was there or invited to be there and so many of our most talented choreographers and teachers that you would have to really work hard to have a bad time.

My name is Carol Craven and I hope you will enjoy reading about what is happening in the world of line dancing today.  It's not just country any longer.  There are still dances done to country but much more is being done to top 40/non-country music.  There are many events to attend around the world and line dancing is alive and well although I think it's a pretty well-kept secret.  I hope you will check out my website and see some of the free videos so you can get an idea of the types of dances we are now doing and will give line dancing a try.  You can also go to www.youtube.com and just put line dance in the search box and you'll find lots of other examples.  It's a wonderful group of people and there's many events and seminars to keep you busy dancing -- and you don't need a partner!! 

I'll be posting the weekly survey here and event reports and things that might be of interest and you can always go to my site to check out the WORLD EVENT CALENDAR.  I look forward to meeting new people here that either have classes and don't have them listed under the WHERE TO DANCE link on my site or hear from people who would like to give line dancing a try.  I'll be happy to direct you to a teacher near where you live.
