Line dancing flash mob takes over Glasgow's Buchanan Street
Maggie's Line Dance Class brought people together for a line-dancing flash mob on Saturday, May 3, at noon on Buchanan Street, near the Donald Dewar statue.
The dance was in aid of International Line Dance Flash Mob Day, which takes place on the first Saturday in May every year.
Maggie Stevenson, who runs her classes from Maggie's Rock n' Rodeo in the Trongate, put a call out to the public last month.
It said: 'The event will include beginner dances - A Bar Song and House of Bamboo - as well as the more advanced Do It All Again.

In recognition of Scottish traditional dancing, the group will also be dancing The Slosh to Kevin McGuire's Have You Ever Seen the Rain.
The event is open to everyone, regardless of line-dancing experience.'
Taking to social media to applaud those who turned up, Maggie said: "You were all fabulous - thank you so much for joining us and help make it a fantastic day for everyone.
"Next year we will make it even bigger and even better!!!"
Those who attended were quick to praise the event (Image: Facebook/LinedancingatJaxons) Those who joined in were quick to share how much they enjoyed the event. One said: "What a brilliant day, everyone you seen had a glow, loved beings part of it."
Another joked: "Well done, everyone. Loads of sore feet and heads this morning."
And a third gushed: "The most enjoyable day ever, am still buzzing."
