We have an annual Masquerade Ball at my house (about 200 people). Several of us decided to learn your dance and would break out into our own version of a flash mob whenever the song came on. I made sure that it repeated throughout the evening about 5 times. Just imagine about 8 women in Ball Gowns dancing to "Happy". Needless to say, we were quite the "Belle's of the Ball". Thank you for posting this dance, it was a delight to perform it. Now we will have to see what we will do next year!
Thank you so much Cathy. That sounds like it was a blast. Check out my line dance video to Bruno Mars' Uptown Funk. th-cam.com/video/e3DPmhQalbM/w-d-xo.html
I love your line dance. I was working on a project for school to help fight childhood obesity. I created a challenge using your choreography because I found it easy to learn and wanted something everyone wasn't doing. This is only for school but the idea is that they do the line dance with or without others and donate $5 to Alliance for a Healthier Generation or don't take the challenge and donate $100. Similar to the ice bucket challenge but with a twist. Thanks for sharing and keep on dancing.
Thank you for sharing this Valonda! We enjoyed our 40th High School Class Reunion in La Jolla Shores Beach Resort, San Diego, CA. last Oct. 11, '14 dancing your version of the Happy line dance!
This is one of the bestnones I have seen...and it is easy for my girls to learn since we are using dance as one of our exercise routine...Thanks a lot for this video.
This is the coolest line dance ever!!!!!! It's like a Cupid shuffle, but happier!! Omg you are the best!! I can finally dance to a song I like without difficult moves and it looks good too!
Hi. I love this video. I taught my 6th graders to sing Happy, now we're doing the whole production thanks to your help. Crazy English teacher from Japan
I really like your video! This is the best choreographed line dance of it I have seen so far and it fits well with the song. Good job! Im quite sure people will be doing this one at different events.
My first grade team did this for a pep rally teacher competition to get our students motivated for upcoming exams! We won first place! !! Thank you! !!!
I will be at the Walk MS event and I am so excited that this is going to be going on! I think that it is a great song and glad that it will be played!!!!
Omg. My school.. Is going to a pep rally! And my best friend was chosen of one of the dancers and she'll perform it! Great job! I'll also be ''clapping'' along! I think the last move is hard. But I'll never quit trying!
Thought you might want to know there is a group in Raleigh doing this as kind of a flash mob in the morning to surprise a dear friend in celebration of her last chemotherapy treatment. Thanks for sharing!
I am uncoordinated. I could never even master holding a cigarette without setting something on fire, so I know - learning this dance HAD to be because of the easy-to-follow instruction!
You make it so easy to do! We've got a group from our little non-profit in KY that will perform this at our fundraiser in Feb 2020! Thank you so much for this video - you have helped us more than you know :)
Amazing! My whole class is doing this dance for an assignment and we love it! We are all getting the hang of it! Its a fun and amazing dance to learn 😊😊
Hi.I love this! It's funny how great minds think alike. LOL. I have been preparing the choreography for this song.There's banquet at my school next month.The part of the clapping and jerking is the same as mine. If you don't mind, may I use the rest of the steps. Of course, I will definitely give you credit. I can send you a video of our students' performance. Btw: I already saw some Zumba instructors acknowledging your work:) I believe you are the creator of the Happy Line Dance!! Keep up the great work:)
Awesome instructions, I have the steps down,, now to figure out how to do it to music, I have no rhythm. I 'm in Nebraska and sending this link to girls in California so when we all meet up in Vegas we can do the happy dance,, Thank You, Oh and can you show us the line dance for Blurred Lines?? You have knack for showing the steps in an easy to follow format,, Thanks again
Thank for this video. I'm trying to learn how to dance period. I was never taught how and I get so embarrassed when other people start dancing and I can't. It's starting to drive me crazy!
Yes. I've learned two good dances so far. The wobble and the cha cha slide. Lol... That's all I had time and energy for. I wanna just learn how to dance to the beat really, but I don't have much rhythm. Lol.. Thanks for asking.
I do too. If you want, you can to type in "learn to do the cha cha in the youtube search bar, then scroll down to the black lady in light blue jeans and black shirt. She gives the best instructions on how to do that dance. And you can type in how to do the wabble in the youtube search bar also, and scroll down to the ladies in the purple shirts and black pants. I think I'm about to do it tonight for cardio.
if you could put this to the music of ELO " all over the world " it looks alot like the line dance the people are doing literally all over the world to that song COOL STUFF !!!! thank you
I know most people pick this up quickly. I am such a spaz. Can you tell me what hands to start with. I'm trying to make sure and I seem to always be backwards on the correct foot and hand placement.
No problem Susan. Thanks for working on it. We start on the right. Clap towards the right and stomp on the right foot. At 2:03 you can see us begin from the back.
I just turned on about maybe 30 people and I live nowhere in Florida but I can't find your video anymore did you get off the internet if so then no I can't afford to see it no more

The last eight count hitch movement really goes with the song.
You make it so much easier. I even get my coworkers and the kids we work with to learn the dance
That's wonderful to hear.
My 12yr old daughter and I enjoyed this, we plan on doing this together as soon as her ankle heals. Thanks for sharing O:-)
