so im part of my friends cotillion. a cotillion is a coming of age party. its when a girl celebrates their 18th birthday. so im part of her entourage. and we have to do 3 dances. the problem is, i suck!! im so not coordinated. but im trying my best to figure things out. the first dance is the waltz. oh my!! it seems so hard, but i dont want her to think i give up easily. so any advice for me?! thanks.

this my sound stupid... & it probably is :D but here's my advice:
- watch "Footloose". It'll get you giddy and inspired to try your best!
- play DDR or find any way that'll help you practice finding the beat to any song.
- dance in the mirror, or with a friend you will close with.
- be CONFIDENT! there's nothing worse than dancing like a freak of nature (not saying you do) with low confidence! it just looks stupid. Being confident will make you look like you know what you're doing, or at least like you're having fun!
- Good luck. I'm sorry if my advice was lame. But have fun @ the cotillion and PARTY HARDY!

okay.. im not a great dancer butt.. here goes :
you should practice alot alot ALOT, before you give up.
practice doesnt make perfect, but it can help you become better (;
and as tiffthepoopoo[hahah, sorry ><] said, do ddr =]
.. and thats all i have.
so good luck !

Oh I know! I know! Eat tons of egg nog and within two hours, a wonderful fairy should come and visit you, asking you for a wish. Tell her you want to become a better dancer. And make sure you tell her, "No," when she mentions the pineapple and Hitler.

i love the movie footloose! <33

yeah, well i don't know how to do the waltz
but it can't be that hard... just do your best

Damn! I was just going to say that.
... Okay, not really.

Lmao.

Hm... Well, I am not a good dancer either. So sometimes I am in the same problem... You could either ask a friend for help, and go with the flow when you have to dance...

Just dance to the rhythm of the music. Practice infront of the mirror; or in your room. Maybe watch some dance videos; you could download some in Limewire. Trying downloading "Valenti Dance Steps - BoA"

That made me smile. =)

Take dancing classes if your that worried.

feel the beat and be yourself give it your best lol good luck!

.:Tony:.

i've been to one of those. they're so fun. firstly, just relax and take a deep breath. it takes practice, i'm sure you'll be fine.

watch a lot of dancing movies(you got served, Dirty Dancing havana night, etc) to get some inspiration....
and play lots of DDR

practice the dance a lot..
i had to perform a dance in 2 weeks notice and i practiced a lot and i got it right..lol...

Why does that remind me ever so strongly of little nicky?

Just go with the flow and do what comes to mind (:

two left feet huh? me too. just move to the beat and go to the practices

i use to suck at dancing. but then i got more confident and instead of concentrating on the moves so hard, i have fun. and suprisingly, it makes you look better while dancing. enjoy the music, pretend you in a music video or soemthing.

try having those foot on the ground like..placed in the pattern and just practive off that? everything else's listed ><"

Pfft, dancing is so overrated.

practise more and try to be ur best..
feel the beat with your heart~
and be confidence while u r dancing
tell urself : " i can DANCE WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL"

Yeah DDR helps A LOT, of course alcohol could really losen you up and you'll dance your ass off cuz you won't care

* no I'm not endorsing underage drinking, but yeah it helps
Ok yeah I'm being stupid, anyways yeah just take note what other people are dancing to at the party, and watch a lot of music videos, you'll be learning in no time
practice makes perfect, and have confidence, if you dance like you can't people can tell.

wat about DDR...its fun LOL

All we can tell you without actually physicly helping you is keep practicing.

Play DDR.
