Hi, I'm Renee.
And I'm Connie.
We're here at Denman Diamonds, one of the hottest country nightclubs sweeping the nation
from coast to coast.
You may have seen the ride-ups in Forbes Magazine and Time Magazine.
We're going to be doing four hot line dances.
I'm going to be teaching you the tush push and the Texas cha-cha.
And I'll be teaching you how to do the alley cat and the hip hop.
Line dancing has become one of the favorite activities in nightclubs, health clubs, and
even in living rooms.
And we have people come up to us all the time and ask us if we can teach them how to line
dance.
So to meet the demand, we decided to provide you with a video that can help you to learn
some of the most popular line dances.
Each dance will be broken down into patterns.
Next, we will show you how the patterns are put together to form the dance.
Then we will do a demonstration so you can see how the dance is performed.
So get your boots on and get ready to boogie.
Our first dance that we're going to be doing is called the alley cat.
This is one of my favorite dances.
There are ten patterns to this dance, and it's a four wall dance.
