Line Dancing is the 2nd most popular extra curricular activity in the World, using all rhythms of music. Originally, the most popular music used for line dancing is country music, now there are thousands of dances for Latin, soul and funk songs, etc. Line dancing is healthy for body and mind, it makes an hour fly by without any stress, and you can learn new steps and make new friends while staying fit. It is easy-to-follow, fun-to-do, fun-to-learn, and does not require a partner.

Line Dance is a formation dance where a group of people stands in a line or in lines, and they all execute the same dance moves. In a smaller group there may be only one line, but usually there are several parallel lines, one behind the other. In this parallel lines formation the dancers dance in a synchronized manner, but independently of each other. There are usually no moves that require any interaction between the dancers.

Line Dance is a choreographed style of dancing. That means, when you step out a line dance, you are following a sequence of steps that have been conceived by the choreographer or choreographers. Remembering the step sequences is actually more important than trying to learn a particular dance - while dances come into popularity and then vanish into oblivion, the step sequences are eternal - at least as eternal as line dancing. Progressing from novice to beginner to intermediate and finally to advanced is really a matter of learning more basic steps and increasing complex step sequences and integrating them together.

    利用不同音樂旋律所組成的排舞已被列為世界上最受歡迎社區活動的第二名。
初期的排舞多採用鄉謠音樂；到現今，多兼用其他音樂，如拉丁，蘇靈及流行音樂等
等。在優美的音樂旋律帶動下跳排舞能使身心愉快，忘却煩憂，並能在學習各種不同的舞步及健體之同時，又能結交新朋友。

   排舞是排排跳的集體舞，跳舞者排成一行或多行一起跳同一組或多
組舞步。在這些平行排列的模式下，大家都跟隨音樂跳出一致的舞步而不需要舞伴亦
能愉快地享受跳舞的樂趣。除演繹特定組合的舞步之同時，跳舞者亦可有表現個人特
色的機會。

   排舞的舞步是舞蹈編撰家根據音樂的旋律及個人風格所編成的。大家在跳舞之時便是在演繹編撰家的作品。學習排舞應該是著重掌握舞蹈中不同舞步的基本動作，而非只為認識及學習其中的一套作品。因為基本舞步是恆久不變，反之作品或許只是流行一段期間之後很快便會被大家忘記。由初學者以至進階至資深學員的過程，當中是不斷學習不同的舞步，由簡單的基本步開始至慢慢累積經驗到各種不同難度的組合步法，循序漸進。
