Dancing?, i can't... Options

[smileyworld010]

i can't dance. i'm not talking about anything fancy, just dancing on a dancefloor with friends, you know? can't do it! i really wish i could though because i'm not shy at all and i love parties, i just can't dance! i mean, slow dancing is easy i guess but like just dancing and having fun, is there some kind of secret, or will i just be awkward forever...? helphelphelp.

[bonnyvae]

I don't know how to either...

[-sincerely]

as well.

[tokyo-rose]

Go out on the dancefloor with a friend who can dance [well] and follow her movements. Just move however feels right to the music. Sorry if this didn't help.

[aznraver396]

Just..dance. I don't really know how to explain it. I mean, you might not be able to dance just because you're self conscious about it. If you're REALLY worried about it, go in front of a mirror and just fool around a bit. :)

[OhMyAnniee]

Do you have rhythm? Is that the problem?

[*Infinite.*]

I can't dance at all, I'm really good with dancing games though!

I don't have a problem with Rhythm either, I guess I never really found the point in dancing, I like standing and tapping my foot to the beat. Little odd, I know.

If you really want to know the secret and your friends can dance, why not get them to show you how? It could be fun too.

[mznikki]

there really is no definate secret about it, its how ever the music and rhythem goes and how ever you feel like movin around and having fun at the same time go for it. nothings wrong with dancin like a goof cause you're not the only one. you may be just too self concious, relax its just movin your body to the beat, and you aren't the only one who feels this way, just takes time to get used to it esp if you are really shy, but once you can face the fear you'll have even more fun esp with your friends dancing along with you.

[think!IMAGINARIL...]

Listen to the music
Turn it up, let it go
Take it in until you feel it
Take control

I LOVE that song.

Anyways..
Just move your body to the beat.
Maybe you should watch some music videos and try to imitate the moves.

[*WHIMSICAL 0NE*]

Just kind of move around. That's what I do. Good friend's won't make fun of your lame dance moves.

[vn_cuti3]

yah i agree with some of these advice
-look in the mirror
-follow the rhythm


i can't dance either but i just let myself loose on the dance floor n do all these crazy moves i see in music videos [[well at least i tried to]] and all my friend's would think i lied bout not knowing how to dance lol

[5ayuri]

I love dancing I dont know how to teach it though...

[lollypop036]

Watch BET

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

Well doesn't that suck.



Imitate the 'cool guys'
Or watch a 'Crunk' video, or bettet yet, watch Tell Me When to Go by E-40.
That is all.

[datass]

I can't dance either

[splitnightsky]

I can sure as heck dance,
but I hate to do it in front of people.
I'm saving the ultra sexay dancing for my husband :)

*sprinkles dancing ability on you*
now just groove to the music, baby XD

but seriously, just watch people.
s'how I do it.

[LiLaZnGirL122]

lol secret? jus move to tha music but dont do any funky move or sumthin. what REEEAAALLLLLYY helps is watching music videos. you can also learn dances to certain songs by watching tha music video and then you wont look stupid when tha song goes on and everyone is walking it out pwahhaa.

[angelrevelation]

Get with someone who REALLY knows how to dance (preferably a guy because it's easier to follow) and kind of... "feel" the music. don't try to do any specific or impressive moves. Just move in a way that feels natural.

most important body parts to use in my opinion: arms and hips.

And usually dancefloors are crowded so no one will notice if you dance funny

[*x1227x*]

find the rhythm and go with it. just move

[mzislandpinay]

be confident. "feel" the song. kinda copy the way your friends dance. don`t worrie bout others watchin. jhus find the beat and move wit it.

[laurie_]

relax; flow with the music :)
the key is not to worry about it too much.
be free.

[wishforhelsinki]

i can't dance to save my life. or play sports. or swim. haha. i pretend i know how to but choose to be silly instead :] works!

[SarahxJoy]

Practice in your room in front of the mirror, listening to all kinds of different music. Just flow with the song and dance however you feel like, then you can decide what you think looks best or is most comfortable for you.

[AngeDeRuine]

I used to think I couldn't dance, until my friends dragged me onto the dancefloor at my schools Christmas Ball. We started immitating other people, just joking around, and screaming out the lyrics to the songs. I guess my problem was I was just uptight about it, and when I loosened up, I figured out I wasn't a horrible dancer. :D

So, just go with the floooww. Relaxx. Let the rythem take you to another plaaace. [sways back and forth] XDD

[MrStrife]

1 gotta big party 1m throwing thats coming up and 1 dance like MC Hammer!! Hammertime!!! lolz 1 got the body but no rhythm or idea what to move or where. hahahhaz

[*suddenly she*]

when in doubt, grind. boy or girl, it doesn't matter.
LOL time to punch myself in the face

You cannot imagine the trauma I have survived nor my capabilities."

Sex with clothes on. Your ass + his dick + grind = dancing/

[drummergirlmarim...]

whats sad about me, is i LOVE dancing. and i can follow choreo, but i cant do freestyle or dance floor dancing. :'( i always look goofy. and when i copy my friends, like my friend J, i start dancing those more erotic "freakdancing" dancing and i dont like it. cuz im known for being really innocent and childlish. but at dances my friends go like "omg R, so naughty"

[StubbornFemme]

I was in your same exact state of mind and spot because I "thought" I couldn't dance. But theres really no exact way to do it, you just start moving a little here and there nothing too crazy haha. But you know what, when youre w/ your friends..its doesnt matter at all. So have a blast, do w/e you feel like or what the beat of the song is.

[femmefatale4160]

Dancing is pretty much my life.

A lot of these people have given you good advice--listen to the music, move your body to the rhythm, and try imitating a friend who's a good dancer.

[Stefanny]

Just go along with everybody. It's pretty easy...Sway your head side to side...Make your own dance....Nobody's gonna notice that you can't dance.

[a.little.insane]

Mhh.. I can't dance.. &I don't like dancing.. so it's not a problem for me. =D

[mylittleMiracle]

me either..I think...um..just try to shake your body.XD I could only dance when I felt that song was too awesome.

[flc]

My friends always told me to just move. So I did, & I felt very awkward about it. I probably looked awkward too. Therefore, I just don't go to very many parties where I know there will be dancing. Except for like, homecoming & prom. I can only dance with arrows. ^-^

I guess all you have to do is not care. As long as you're having a good time, what's it matter?

[unconfirmed_exis...]

Thinking about it too much isn't so good.
I mean who's really going to pay close
attention to you besides your friends? (usually)

I don't know any fancy moves myself but I just dance
the way I want to and no one usually says a thing
because it's just my way of going about things.

So just be yourself and do whatever you want to the beat.
Enjoy yourself, there's no point in doing anything fancy while dancing
if you're not having fun!

[AimeeLynn]

I love to dance!!!!!! Mostly hip hop and I can't to learn ballet idk why.

[mzweirdo]

Watch BET

haha that made me laugh.
well i don't know how to dance either, but i just do whatever.
doesn't really matter to me, and it shouldn't matter to you either.
just pretend you know how, and ermm hopefully nobody will figure it out?
hahaha justkidding, but yeah who cares.
i mean atleast you're dancing instead of standing around right?

[Mr. Slowjamz]

LONG ISLAND HOUSE BITCH !!!! . ...and a little bit of soca & bochata .... !!!.... Hip Hop is Dead - Nas

[*a painefull euphoria*]

i learned how to dance naturaly.[im latina i have to learn some how]
so yeah idk how i did it.

[multifaceted]

relax. stick with the beat and do whatever your instincts tell you...

especially if you happen to get a hot guy from the dance and he wants to do it with you.

[y0urelectrikk]

pfft I suck at dancing too and always feel really awkward if I do it.
unless I'm hyper or something.. then I could really care less.

[Intercourselyts]

Don't worry, I can't dance either. I haven't ever really felt weird about it though or upset about it. I just accept thats its me and my personality.

Are you comfortable enough to go out there and just start dancing? Maybe thats your problem?

[*My Cinderella.*]

I have the same problem as you. This is what you do, find one of your friends that love to boogie and ask her to teach you! Or keep it simple by just moving your feet from side to side as well as your hips.

[roooyer]

I think because you're shy you're more worried about how other people will see you, so you don't dance because you don't want to make a fool of yourself. Sometimes you just gotta let it go and forget anyone is looking at you.. thats what I do

[mocassinsx29]

follow the rhythm. when it gets awkward, break into the macarena.

[*a painefull euphoria*]

do the hustle or the robot.

or the robo chicken
