    You may be asking how do I meet all the people and get dance partners? I asked myself the same question. I would walk into the bar and everyone around me has friends and I wondered if I could become "one of them" could be a good dancer or if I could make the amount of dance partners they have. I did eventually but I had to do a few things to do that. One was to know what was truly going on. That meant practicing everything, from how to do some of the basic line dances to how to even turn correctly with boots on and having the right kind of boots too which we will get to later. There is so much that goes into it and its almost like any sport. you have to be willing to practice and put effort into it. 

    When you find a dance hall and you then go forward with learning, remember a few things. One do not  give up, it takes a lot of practice and a lot of coordination to get it down.  Another is to trust the process, I say this because you have to trust yourself in ways that you might have not thought of. Such as one you might be rough at dancing at first and later on you will get better but again it takes practice. within all of this you also have to find a partner that also knows how to dance and they can help you. Just ask a person you seen on the dance floor and ask them to help you learn how to dance. They should be able to help you learn if they are any good at dancing. 

    It all starts by trying and asking for help and being motivated. You wont be like them unless you ask for help since they all started where you are too. They asked for help, you can too!

Maybe your friend begged you to go somewhere with them and you were scared to try something new but you agreed to go? Did you end up LOVING it? The girls above in the picture felt the same. I had my birthday party at a swing dance bar recently and many of my friends had no idea what swing dancing was. By the end of the night they were so glad I introduced them to it.      We all should try something new every once in awhile if you ask me. I would not have discovered my love for swing dancing if I did not step outside of my comfort zone. I suggest you find a friend or two and try to go dancing too! Do not get discouraged, its fun and also great exercise but it takes practice. You may get asked by a guy or girl to dance, and even if you don't know them or if you do not know how to dance, you will have a blast danci

I grew up in the city of Topeka but have some family out in the country too. I often like to say thats where I gained my love for the country. I grew up going to Texas where my uncle lives and we would go to a place called Garner State Park. Garner State Park is Located in Concan Texas.      Garner holds a special place in my heart, not only due to the late nights with my cousins but also learning to two-step and meeting some great friends. One of my friends Blaine, I met when I was a Freshman in High School and kept in contact with. We ended up both being at Garner the same night when I was a senior. We have been in touch all 4 years and many more after that. That night was a night to remember, we both grew up and talked all about what has happened in the past couple
