Barn Dance & Line Dance

With the experience of our EXPERIENCED BARN DANCE CALLER / SQUARE DANCE CALLER and PRESENTERS using Professional Sound Systems to play music and take your guests through the steps, your Barn Dance will go with a real SWING very quickly.

Generally, the Dances and movements used at a Barn Dance are hundreds of years old and have been passed down through generations, CONTINUING TO BE POPULAR because they are easy to use, simple and fun.

Dancing is in couples and in sets ranging from 2 couples to 10 couples or more—in Circles, Squares or Longways—numbers don’t really matter as long as there are enough people to fill up your Dancing space.

THINKING OF

HOLDING A BARN / SQUARE DANCE

 

BARN/ LINE DANCING
BARN/ LINE DANCING

I HAVE NO EXPERIENCE OF BARN DANCING OR

LINE DANCING, CAN I STILL

PARTICIPATE IN DANCING?

 

Barn Dance is absolutely ideal for people who have little or no Dancing skills because most of the movements are natural to all of us—like linking your arm with someone else or holding hands to form a circle, you see these things happening every day— for example in a School playground.

To ensure your guests at the Barn Dance know what to do your Barn Dance Caller for the evening is your MC, Teacher and Instructor, using his knowledge and experience to decide which Dances best suit the audience as regards speed and complexity, CALLING out changes in movements as they occur during each Barn Dance.

When the Dancers progress under the Instructions of the Barn Dance Caller during the evening to more complicated Dances never worry about remembering the movements and changes—it is the job of the Barn Dance Caller to remind everyone what to do–when to do it and who do it with! This is why he will often politely refuse offers of large amounts of alcohol! If he cant remember what to do—you have no chance!

A Line Dance  is absolutely ideal for people who have little or no Dancing skills because our Callers use simple easy to follow movements that even beginners can follow.

It is the job of the Line Dance Instructor  to show simple movements and dance patterns which can fit with the Line Dancing Music.  The Music tends to be American Country and Western tunes.

HOW LONG DO BARN DANCE/ LINE DANCE

PARTIES LAST?

 

Each Barn Dance lasts around 10 to 15 minutes including a walk through by the Barn Dance Caller to learn the steps and changes—the Barn Dance Event can be run for 3 or 4 hours with breaks between Dances of around 10 minutes.

The breaks between Dances allow you to get your breath back and socialise with friends whilst listening to background music which keeps the toes tapping away whilst looking forward to the next Dance.

WHAT SORT OF MUSIC IS PLAYED AT A BARN

DANCE/ LINE DANCE?

 

The Music at a Social Barn Dance event will be a mixture of mainly traditional tunes drawn from England, Scotland, Ireland and America and also sometimes popular Second World War tunes from the 1940s all of which give an excellent atmosphere for not only Dancing but also Singing.

The Music at a Barn Dance to accompany the Dancing is played either through a Sound System using recorded Music or if your budget allows a Live Band is used.

WHERE SHOULD A BARN DANCE/LINE DANCE BE

HELD?

 

Barn Dance can be held in most locations as mentioned above, Clothing can be casual and for an authentic evening Straw or Cowboy Hats and colourful Check Shirts always brighten up the Barn Dance as well as providing an excellent reason for presenting PRIZES to the best dressed Lady/Gent OR Boy/Girl at the Barn Dance, in addition to a PRIZE for the Best Dancers.

Barn Dance footwear should be comfortable to allow for twisting and turning and dancing on less than perfect surfaces.

Similar rules apply to Line Dancing.
