Dancing...

I love to dance, and am always keen to get on the dance floor. I don't let a little thing like I'm rubbish at it put me off...
As an aside, I love to see older couples dancing together- sometimes with verve and style that many young might envy.

love to dance ,always first on the dance floor 70's an 80;s for me Jazz funk is a favourite spent many nights at a local club on the Loch dancing with my friends,my OH isn't much of a dancer.
We do manage a smoochy dance around the living room though at least a couple of nights a week .
I remember my mum telling us she would go dancing nearly every night when she was young ,Glasgow was the dancing capital of the world apparently different ballroom every night .Thats about the only way Mum and me were alike ,

Love dancing....clubbing kind, so Rave, House, disco. Still would if could stay awake long enough in the evenings!

No I don’t like dancing I m much too self conscious used to love getting on the floor when I was teens 20s /30 s but haven’t done so since and dread the thought of eyes on me so I ll sit out with you blondiescot

I would enjoy it if I had a good partner, but alas poor old dh has no sense of rhythm. At all.
I’ve often envied people whose partners are good dancers, as my DF was.

So it’s very rare that I hit the dance floor at all.
But I did last September, at a London do to celebrate a BiL’s earlier wedding that had taken place in strict-lockdown Singapore.
I was pulled on to the floor by an exceedingly lively and hilarious Venezuelan friend of the B&G, another Singapore resident.
His first words to me were, ‘I am homosexual!’ ?
I think he danced with just about every woman who didn’t actually need a Zimmer frame.

I love dancing, even if it’s bopping around the kitchen to 6 Music.

Not being funny MissAdventure, you could do it. Find a moment when you are alone and have some spare time. Start by sitting down and disconnect from your surroundings but don't close your eyes. Just think of a nice memory place and sway around a bit. Add in arms (and legs if you like) but don't get up, just escape and lose control of daily life. Try to react to the light or heavy sounds with the appropriate movements. Gradually it will grow on you and you can then move around.
We could start a GN virtual class in dance!

Oh I'm envious.
I'd love to be swept away by the music.
How lovely.

A little embarrassing to admit but I would be the first on the dance floor and have been. Yet I'm the most introverted personality. I can't resist the music. La Bonita would definitely get me out of my seat. In my dreams I'm a professional ice skater too. I love dance in all forms.

Love to watch traditional ballet, not really in to ballroom although learned to waltz and to do the polka at school. Watch Strictly and used to enjoy Vincent and Flavia doing the Argentine Tango, wouldn’t attempt it with Orlin, bruised legs not attractive.

I had tickets to Matthew Bourne’s Nutcracker….but health issues intervened. I hear it was fabulous.loved his Swan Lake and The Red Shoes.

I'm a lover of dance, was RAD classically trained as a youngster then added in modern, jazz, tap, character etc. We used to trawl national competitions and I have a box of nearly 100 medals including All England finals. Favourite dances to get me going would be anything from Dirty Dancing or ABBA. My god daughter was in 42nd St. and taught me a tap routine from the show. Giselle is my favourite ballet.
However, I'm not one of the first on the dance floor.

Love it, 80’s my favourite, last time in earnest was in my local, early March 2920, nothing remotely classical, not quite first up, but not long after

I love music and to watch dancing, but I'm too self conscious to even have a little shuffle around my flat on my own.
I really feel I've missed out.

Love dancing. Think it's great that there are now classes for over 55s and groups of older people dancing. I'm useless at it and can't remember stuff but it's stil great.

Gay Gordons Volver? Is that too stereotypical?

Thank you MerylStreep, I’ll definitely be watching that.

I love dancing.
My daughter put a video up on FB of the 2 of us dancing to this.

I am the first woman on the dancefloor at the caravan park with a small child that everyone makes fun of

I LOVE to dance and I am RUBBISH at it

If you like ballet have you seen Mao’s Last Dancer? It’s on Netflix. Beautiful film.

Oh and a special plea to those who like dragging reluctant dancers onto the floor.
STOP IT. You are the reason many of us dread parties.

I adore dancing, and would have loved to have been a dancer. Still do like to get up and dance.
