Sonoma Community Center Beginner Workshop

May 23 | 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM | $40

Ready to try line dancing-or get more confident on the floor? Join us for a fun, welcoming Beginner Line Dancing Workshop and Social, designed especially for absolute beginners and those who have never line danced before.

The event includes 1 hour of structured Beginner–Improver instruction, where you’ll learn foundational steps, easy-to-follow dances, and build confidence at a comfortable pace. No experience required-just show up ready to move and have fun. Our instructors break everything down clearly, making it approachable, supportive, and stress-free.

After the workshop, enjoy an open social dance, where you can practice what you’ve learned, dance at your own pace, and enjoy a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Dances will be beginner-friendly, with plenty of opportunities to jump in or take a break as needed.

Come solo or bring friends-no partner needed. Whether you’re brand new, curious about line dancing, or looking for a fun night of movement and music, this event is the perfect place to start.

Sonoma Community Center Advanced Workshop

May 30 | 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM | $40

This event features three hours of advanced-level instruction, focusing on more complex choreography, faster transitions, musicality, styling, and technique refinement. Expect higher-level dances, intricate step patterns, and a pace designed for confident dancers who are comfortable picking up choreography quickly.

Following the workshop, enjoy open social dancing, where advanced and mixed-level dances will be played, giving you plenty of opportunities to practice new material, challenge yourself, and enjoy the energy of the dance floor with fellow experienced dancers.

This workshop is best suited for dancers who regularly attend line dance events and are comfortable with intermediate to advanced choreography. Come ready to learn, sweat, and dance hard-no teaching of basics, just great dancing and great music.
