How well do you dance?

[Jayson1]

Anyone here ever been big on dancing? Do you still do it? Me I think I have only danced once or twice at my high school prom. A slow dance with my the girl who I asked out and she said no and this other girl. I was their kind of on official duty running the camcorder for video yearbook but I took turns with the other guy or girl who was their for the same reason.
I have done the hokey pokey dance as a kid in school. I guess that counts. Also once did the splits but that was because I had bad luck standing on ice. Not because I was about to break out in bigger dance moves. I think I did the YMCA also but I was sitting down. I don't think it counts if your sitting.

I have barely danced in my life, and not really at all until I was an adult, I think so much had to do with my social anxieties. I didn't stay long at my 8th grade graduation dance/party, and I didn't dance; three boys asked me but I turned them all down, I just wanted to leave as quickly as I could. I only spent fifteen minutes at my high school graduation dance/party, I clung to the wall until I could get out and go home. I didn't really have another opportunity to dance until my sister's wedding, and I was much more mature then, I danced with her husband and a couple of my cousins, but I didn't do any of the free dancing or group dancing or things.

I don't feel my aversion to dancing had anything to do with not wanting to dance, but more just about fear socially, if I'm making sense? I've been out dancing one time with my fiance and I was very happy to do so, and for my first time in my life I'm looking forward to my next opportunity.

I agree. I could never see me going out and doing a cool dance or whatever they are called especially in public. People look goofy while dancing though I guess that is why they find it to be fun. I did knew a kid in grade school who was trying to breakdance. Never really got it down pat.

I only do one kind of dancing at all well: LINE.

I feel that some basic knowledge of ballroom steps is a normal part of the social graces.

Well enough that people have complimented me, but always with a tone of surprise in their voice.

When I was a kid I went to small-town Saturday dances with my folks and grandparents and learned the basics of the waltz, foxtrot, reel, schottische... I'm forgetting some. And the more intricate quadrille maneuvers. My wife hates to dance, feels self-conscious about it. But I have had a lot of fun dancing.

 

[Riker'sMailbox]

I cannot do traditional dance, like ballet or tap or jazz that are taught in dance schools.

I can Irish Step Dance and Swing Dance. I loved dancing in bars and parties and clubs in my 20s, and think I was good at it, but have no real idea if I actually was good at it. Now, I just dance at weddings.

 

[Lord Garth]

A pretty good dancer. I go with whatever everyone is doing sometimes. Other times it's free-style. I have my own moves.

 

[Velocity]

I did a real wild improv dance once when I stepped on one of the kids' Lego with my bare foot. There were some crazy steps and lots of vocalizing associated with this dance.

 

[Butters]

Dancing is something other people do.

I tried it. I didn’t like it, people got hurt. The less said about it all the better.

 

[Q2UnME]

My name and the words 'dance' or 'dancing' never appear in the same sentence.

I don't dance thanks, I'm British

Or due to Alcohol, I dance like the Whitest Man ever in Human history. Now if you will please excuse me...

"You put your left leg in,
Your left leg out:
In, out, in, out, shake it all about.
You do the hokey cokey,
And you turn around.
That's what it's all about"

Then it would be appropriate to point out that I have neither.

 

[Tom Hendricks]

On a scale,

I'm somewhere between these two

 

[auntiehill]

I can:
dance around the truth
waltz through exams
and
give a pretty good song and dance about why I'm not going to do what you want.

But no, I don't actually dance.

So nobody tried doing the Macarana back in the late 90's?

Well...

No comment.

Well, I don't like to brag, but let's just say I taught Bill Gates everything he knows....
