On Oahu, it is all over, and some even with their own clubs. In social dancing it has become in interesting "intermission" dance. Fun for everyone, except for the law against men dancing line dance. I have no idea as to the length of the jail term. Basic line dances focus on movements of the legs and feet, with more advanced dances including the arms and hands. The movements of a line dance are marked as "counts," where one count generally equals one musical beat. A particular movement or step takes place at each beat. A line dance will have a certain number of counts, meaning the number of beats in one complete sequence of the dance which is repeated.
For example, a 64-count dance would contain 64 beats. The number of beats does not necessarily equal the number of steps, however, as steps can be performed between two beats or over more than one beat. Line dances are made up of a certain number of steps, with each step identified by a catchy name. The Texas Two-Step, the Tush Push, the West Coast Shuffle, the Redneck Girl, and the Boot Scootin' Boogie are all well-known line dances still performed in country-western bars today. Because its steps are simple and don't involve dancing with a partner, line dancing is ideal for singles and people who don't normally dance.
Line dancing is taught and practiced in country-western dance bars, night clubs, social clubs, and dance halls around the world. One of the most popular line dances performed today is the "Cha-Cha Slide," whose easy-to-follow steps are dictated right in the lyrics to the song, though you may be unfamiliar with certain moves like the Charlie Brown. The "Cupid Shuffle" also became largely popular at high school dances in the early 2000s and is still played in clubs. Wherever the line dance originated, one thing's for certain: this easy-to-learn group dance format isn't going to lose any fans anytime soon!

slightly different from each other and there is the intrigue,"

"Pure truth, like pure gold, has been found unfit for circulation, because people have discovered that it is far more convenient to adulterate the truth, than to refine themselves."
