Daw n Cox- Line Dancing I moved to the Ramara area in 2003 and started taking line dancing classes at the Ramara Centre in 2004. The dancing was great exercise and the group was so much fun I kept going. In 2016 our instructor felt it was time to retire and a good friend and I took over the classes. W hen she moved away in 2018 I continued teaching the classes at Ramara and in other areas in the vicinity. I enjoy meeting other line dancers and find the experience of teaching and dancing to be fun, healthy and very rewarding.
