Imagine a dance floor where a hundred performers move in perfect harmony, each step meticulously synchronized.
This is the essence of line dancing, a dance style where choreography and repetition blend seamlessly.
While many might think of the Macarena as a classic line dance, the one we’re about to dive into is deeply rooted in country music and the country-western line dance tradition.

To understand line dancing, there are a couple of key points to note.
Firstly, dancers form lines, either facing each other or in the same direction. The unique aspect? They don’t physically touch each other.
This style of dance is a highlight at the Voghera Country Festival in Italy, one of Europe’s largest and most eagerly awaited country festivals.

Initially, this festival was a celebration of Independence Day, a time for fun and community.
However, it evolved into the Voghera Country Festival (VCF), an annual event drawing some of America’s finest artists.
They come to showcase their talents in various dances like the country Line Dance, the Two-Step, West Coast Swing, and the Catalan Style, competing against their European counterparts.

Dance has always been a powerful medium for uniting cultures, and the VCF is a perfect example of this.
In 2017, the festival’s dance competition was taken by storm by the Wild Country group with their “One Hundred” performance.
Over 100 line dancers took the stage, presenting an extraordinary choreography crafted by Adriano Castagnoli.

This event, deeply American in spirit, held in the heart of Europe, significantly bridges cultural gaps.
The primary aim is to have fun, and that’s precisely what the performers from Wild Country, an Italian dance group, did.
Their performance was a vibrant expression of their admiration for American culture.

As the dancers lined up, the tune “You Can Depend On Me” by Restless Heart filled the air.
The scene was a blend of various ages and genders, all part of an incredible routine that’s bound to leave anyone spellbound.
The synchronization was impeccable, and the joy evident on the dancers’ faces was infectious.
If you’ve never seen country-western dance in Italy, this performance is an eye-opener.

Their attire and dance moves were in perfect harmony. Adriano, the choreographer, along with his partner Monia, led the group from the front row. Their chemistry was palpable, adding an extra layer of charm to the performance.
Adriano and his team truly know how to energize a crowd.
