Learn in the middle
Line dancing tip -
If you are learning a dance for the first time and want to have the best chance of seeing the steps and having fun, you will want to position yourself in the middle of the dance floor behind the instructor. This might sound scary, but the middle is the best place to start because most dances face different walls, and you will always have someone in front of you so you're not "out on an island", so to speak, at any point. You also get to watch the instructor more closely (they're supposed to know the dance), and when you ask questions you won't feel like everyone is looking at you.
