I'm a line dancer in the Washington, D.C. area who started out country line dancing and discovered the fabulous soul line dance community.

Many of the songs and dances listed below are great line dances for high school proms, college dances, reunions, bachelor(ette) parties, retirement functions, mixers, and office parties.They're easy enough that everyone from kids to seniors can bust a move.

What's the Difference Between Soul and Country Line Dances?

Soul or urban line dances such as the wobble, cupid shuffle, cha cha slide, zydeco slide, biker's shuffle, or booty call are similar to country line dances except they use soul, funk, r&b, gospel, hip-hop or contemporary pop music.

Nowadays, urban line dancing is more than just the electric slide or cupid shuffle. There are literally hundreds of great dances to learn that are being created throughout the country. Unlike specialized hip-hop dances, soul line dances can be done by people of all ages, shapes, and sizes.
