Fran Lineweaver
Bio: I began line dancing in 2009 when my husband and I decided to sell our home in San Antonio, buy a 43' motor coach, and travel this beautiful land of ours. My first experience was not a good one. The instructor I had only taught to people who already knew how to line dance. I left the class very disappointed. A couple of months later we were in the Rio Grande Valley at an RV resort so I tried it again. What a difference it can make having a different instructor/mentor. I am now eaching and praying I do not do to anyone what that first instructor did to me. She almost scared me away from ine dance completely. I have also started choreographing dances, and loving every second I can dance. So dance, have happy feet and keeping smiling.
