A line dance is a choreographed dance with a repeated sequence of steps in which a group of people dance in one or more lines or rows, all facing either each other or in the same direction. Two popular line dances are the CONGA and the Texas Two Step. The CONGA is a Latin American dance that originated in Cuba in the 19th century and is characterized by a lively rhythm and a line of dancers who move around in a circle. The Texas Two Step is a country-western dance that originated in the United States in the mid-20th century and is characterized by two steps forward and two steps back.
