A little dance floor etiquette

Here are a few things to be mindful of when you're dancing:
  • Never come onto the dance floor carrying drinks, glasses, or cans.
  • Never stay on the floor to talk – if the music has started, go off the dance floor to chat.
  • A corollary is don't chat during a dance class. It's a disrespect to the instructor. If you must talk, take it to a place where it won't be heard by anyone in the class.
  • Remember everyone was once a beginner - don't show off or change the steps of a dance if there are beginners on the floor.
  • The more you move while dancing, the more you go to the outside. Spot dances stay in the center; progressive couples dances go around the outside of the dance floor in a counter-clockwise direction.
  • Those dancing around the outside lane have the right of way. Don't block their progress.
  • If you should bump into someone or someone bumps into you, apologize. It doesn't matter whose fault it is.
  • Never walk through a line of dancers to cross the floor – always walk round the floor or wait.
  • Most importantly... enjoy yourselves and the company of the other dancers!

Nice! Robbie McGowan Hickie has written a 64 count intermediate dance called No Scandal (steps) to the song Tentacion (by Marcos Llunas). The song has a good latin beat to it and goes well with the dance. Give it a try!
