This form of dance is characterized by a choreographed sequence of steps performed by a group of individuals arranged in one or more lines or rows. Participants execute the same movements simultaneously, typically without physical contact. A common example involves a repeated sequence of steps to music, often country music, though other genres are also utilized.
Its appeal lies in its accessibility and social nature. It offers a fun way to exercise, improve coordination, and engage in community activities. Historically, this dance style has evolved from folk and social dances, adapting to various musical trends and cultural influences, fostering a sense of belonging and shared experience among participants.
