barn dancing
Country square dancing
Barn dancing is a style of social dancing featuring lively, informal group dances traditionally held in barns or rural settings.
Square dances, line dances, and country reels fall under this heading.
The term evokes American folk tradition—fiddle music, a caller directing steps, and community gatherings: The church organized a barn dance for the harvest festival.
