Kickline A kickline is a show dance figure consisting of a series of dancers who throw their legs synchronised up to eye level in the air, forming a straight line.[1] The challenge in performing a kickline is not only the process of lifting the leg in a coordinated manner in order to create a uniform impression, but also lowering it again quickly enough to switch between the standing and throwing leg in quick succession.[2] Well-known kicklines are formed by the New York Rockettes[3] and the ensemble of Berlin's Friedrichstadt-Palast.[4] Kicklines are also often performed in cheerleading and drill teams.[5] References
