Dance Tips Anyone?

[CrazyRussian]

Hey whats up guys. Being the college student I am I've been to quite a few parties with quite a bit of dancing. I don't think I'm horrible but I'm no Astaire...I don't really go by any guidelines at all I just move. A female friend has recently started dissing me.

Anyone have any general tips or do's and dont's for dancing in a party or a club type scene? Such as dont snap your fingers, dont move your head too much, etc?

Just drink and go with what moves ya

shit man, DEFINITELY do not snap your fingers, lol.

giving dance tips over the internet isn't exactly ideal though..... just have fun man. seriously. 99% of the people out there (specifically white and female) have NO IDEA "how" to dance. Sit back and watch chicks dance at college parties. They get into groups to hide their individual horrid disabilities, have no rhythm whatsoever, and only actually dance in spurts of 10 seconds or so, then stop, then start again. Then when a 50 Cent song comes on they all give each other this stupid "sexy" face and perform some sort of faux mentally handicapped stripper routine with their cherubic friends. bleh

anyway, my point here is this - you are at college parties, which means everyone is drunk and having - LITERALLY - the time of their lives. Nobody is critiquing, and if they are, then they are not fun and you don't need to worry about them. The key to dancing in this situation is to not take yourself so seriously. Just have fun, get lost in the stupidity like the girls I described do. You can tell when someone is thinking about how they are dancing while they are dancing cause they look stiff and kind of sad. The dude who doesn't care and just has fun is the one that has the big smile on his face. And the group of girls dancing with him.

But seriously.......Do Not under any circumstances...........Act out the lyrics to the song you or anyone else is dancing to!

Listen... Bob your head off beat. Clap on the wrong beat and mouth the words to the song. If you don't know the words to the song, keep mouthing them and just hum when you dont know them.

Dancing is the one and only area in life where I believe "less is more". If you're "healthy", try not to jump much. Don't act out the lyrics, don't kick your legs in the air (better safe than sorry. I don't know what type of clubs you're planning on going). Don't take your shirt off or unbutton it to your belly button (specially if you are, once again, "healthy" or exhuberantly hairy. Or both). Bottom line, don't do big dance numbers on the dancefloor: try to resist showing your Flashdance moves in leg warmers and a sequined leotard, or pulling the Xanadu and starting the conga line (conga lines are big no, nos. Have you noticed that only ugly people get in the conga line?). Let's see: don't fill your belly with beer and then try to dance on top of the bar (not a good likelihood you will stay there long).
