how to dance?

[HairyTXdude]

Okay guys I need help and quick, Friday Is my 21st bday and I just found that my friends are taking me clubbing on thursday and I can't dance at a club. I can like salsa with a girl (or at least fake it) or dance at a rave but I can't do like club style by myself or with another person. One of my friends let it slip that they invited a guy a have a massive crush on, So I need help learning to dance at a club, even simple stuff by myself although I would like to be able to dance with him sexy or otherwise....

Please.. your cute as hell.. why would you not look good?
And...how do you know he can dance?

What kind of club is it? Is it a true Techno/dance club, or is their venu more rap & R&B?
I could never dance to rap or R&B. Too slow or hacked up beats..not sure which.
If theyre playing Progressive Techno - your all set. Just follow the beat, make fluid movements with your body, feet, legs etc.

I learned early on, people dont like hands flying about...If you do use your hands, be mindful of where they're flying...

Use your Hips and butt. They're fluid too.

Your style is your style. If your that worried about it.. Try mixing it up and practice some moves that you might like.

Like the moves..but the baggy pants gotta go. Show that BOOTAY!!

Here's one a little slower. Granted you might not be great at the shuffle...but you get the idea.
Encorporate your own moves.

Look into dance schools in your area and go take a couple of classes.

If you have a friend who can dance, ask him to show you the dance moves. Once you learn the basic skills practice in front of mirror. Don't be too critical of yourself. When you are in the dance floor just enjoy the music and don't be too concious of what other people may say.

In a long term and if you are serious about learning how to dance, seek the help of dance instructors or go to dance studios and learn it from there
