How to dance


socialcontrol

Recommended Posts

I have been to CC a few times and I really enjoy it there. The thing is, I'm tired of standing around and talking the whole time; I went over and tried to dance and it was horrible. It looks like so much fun but I need help so that next time I dont embarrass myself and everyone I'm with.

Does anyone know of a good website/video where I can learn in the comfort of my own home?

Are there names for different styles?

I don't even know what else to ask :drool

These arent set dances. The beauty of C.C. and other goth bars is that you can move any which way. We dont judge cause most of us cant really dance. If it feels good then do it.

When I'm out on the dance floor, i just freeze up because i don't know what to do. I just want someplace to start and maybe then I can find my own way.

Honestly the majority of us just move to the music. We dont have no training or do any regular club moves. I used to freeze up too. Alchohol helps a bit.

Find a full length mirror, put on some industrial music and watch yourself move to it. Figure out what looks ok and what looks bad. That's what I did when I first started going to clubs.

And I wouldn't worry. The beauty of City Club is that no matter how bad you think your dancing is, I guarantee you can spot someone else out there who is just as bad.

Hey. I'll be at city Friday and Saturday. ^_^

If you spot me, get at me....we can dance together!

I'll be with Prick on Friday and a cute little dark haired girl that looks a bit like me on Sat.

^_^

If anything, do what Tiger lily advised.

I wanna know more about the friend!

I don't know a lot about her, were mostly acquaintances but she got a hold of me and wanted to go out on Sat ^_^

If you come Sat I'll introduce you to her. Shes a cutie pie!

Were not going to fight over her are we?

You put your right hand in,

You put your right hand out,

You put your right hand in,

And you shake it all about,

You do the hokey pokey

and you turn yourself around

That what it's all about.

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.

    • I'm glad  that yesterday's day at work is long gone now. There was a very strong unusual energy that I felt, and couldn't get done with the day fast enough. It wasn't  the job at all. I just felt like I really needed to keep my mouth shut, to keep me from getting in situation(s) that probably wouldn't have ended well for me.  
    • You can trust anyone you want.  The only question is whether or not they're deserving of that trust. No risk = no reward.  As such you have to let yourself be vulnerable sometimes and realize that all people will let you down eventually whether it's intentional or not.  The frequency that it happens is what's important.
    • Sorry, I don't check this as often as I should. Anyway document everything (although it sounds like @Trene4000already has been from her post.) It's okay to cry and break down, but not in front of them.  Never give them the satisfaction of seeing you crack.  If anything I'd go out of my way to piss them off, but I don't like being that guy either (and as such I'm not very good at it, except sometimes when I'm not intending to be.) I try to only help those whom deserve it, but that's often hard to judge.  Seeing how someone treats other people is a pretty good indicator of whether or not they're worthy.  Sociopathic narcissistic asshats are very much not worthy. I hope things are going well for you guys.
