George Mauldin first gained a skill for dancing while growing up as a teenager in his hometown of Selma, Alabama. Now 72, Mauldin is sharing his talents with adults in Birmingham who desire to join the line dance craze.

On September 4 Mauldin kicked off a 12-week series of free adult line dance lessons at the West End Library. On Tuesdays through the end of October, Mauldin is teaching dance steps for popular line dances such as The Wobble, the Electric Slide, and the Cupid Shuffle.

George Mauldin’s class is open to patrons of all ages, including novices who have never participated in line dances but desire to learn. Mauldin is owner of Birmingham’s GEM DJ Services and plays music for weekly line dance classes at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church in Birmingham.

“Line dancing is a great way to stay in shape and make new friends,” Mauldin said.
