Grooveline: Raw Groove Line Dance Classes

About this event

GROOVELINE is an all-levels line dance class series designed to bring people together through movement, music, and the shared joy of dancing in community, now at the Stanley Marketplace EVERY 3rd Friday.

All ages. $20 suggested donation to join!

Led by dance artists from Raw Groove , GROOVELINE introduces participants to line dances across a variety of musical genres and social dance traditions. Classes may move between country, R&B, soul, hip-hop, and other styles, creating an experience that feels both familiar and fresh. Participants learn dances through clear, step-by-step instruction before putting everything together with the music.

Line dancing is inherently social: everyone learns the same movement, shares the same rhythm, and contributes to the energy of the room. GROOVELINE builds on that spirit by creating a space where people of different ages, backgrounds, and levels of dance experience can move together without the pressure of needing a partner or previous training.

The series is designed to be accessible to beginners while remaining engaging for dancers who already have line dance experience. Participants are encouraged to learn at their own pace and focus on connection and enjoyment rather than perfection.

GROOVELINE offers a recurring opportunity to gather, move, and build community. Whether you come with friends, family, a date, or on your own, the goal is to leave with a few new dances, a little more confidence, and the feeling of having shared something joyful with the people around you.

Come ready to learn the steps, catch the groove, and join the line.
