would a dance class improve your game?

[napoleon]

I was thinking about joining a dance class (rumba ,samba,cha-cha-cha,swing,foxtrot...classic and latin dances) to improve my dancing skills. Would I dance better in a club? That's my question. I think that an alpha male/DJ should be best in everything including dancing. Also there are a lot of fit girls.

I don't know if it will improve club dancing but it would expose you to a lot of girls. Don't count on them all being fit though.

I took a Salsa class this semester. It was fun in the beginning. It was the first time I got to hold hands with lots of girls and put my arms around them. The problem was that all the cute girls started dropping out. Eventually there were twice as many guys in the class as girls. I got tired of standing at the wall and dropped out. I would have loved to stay but it just wasn’t fun anymore.

join hip hop dancing, its the best for club dancing

 

[napoleon]

But in the school I want to go there MUST be an equal number of guys and girls!

 

[Maxtro]

I don’t understand what you said.

When I first started that class there were more girls than guys. At about the halfway mark hall the girls dropped out, leaving guys as the majority.

I also took a Hip Hop class but I didn’t enjoy it that much and I dropped it too. I liked Salsa more because there is a lot more female contact. What you choose to do with it us up to the two of you.

If you completely suck at dancing and don't want to. Take a "body movement" course.

Here is the description of it at my college

This course is designed for the student with none or very
limited dance experience. Development of basic movement skills, use
of props, understanding elements of music are included. This course is
recommended for singers and actors.

I'll be taking it next semester. What I really want though is a Grinding 101, where you get to practice with a partner

First of all, from all the guys I know none of them wants to go to a dance class.
Secondly I dance extremely well but want to be the best.

I guess it depends on what style of dancing you do. I do Modern jive....which is a combo of most of the styles of dancing you mentioned including dirty dancing.It's all done to modern chart topping music. One of the blokes at my class goes to clubs with his girlfriend. They get on the dance floor and everyone watches. After he finnishes dancing with his woman he dances with some of the women who have been watching. He said when he get's back to his girlfriend the women he dances with are looking and telling there boyfriends "Why can't you dance like that".

So for him yes it improves his dancing in clubs. I don't know if that's the style your looking for but it might be worth a try mate.

I found getting anyone to come to dance class is hard, especially the guys! I've even offered to pay for some lessons for my friends...not interested!!!

I love it when the women give that happy / fun / i'm getting turned on scream when I throw them into a dip / spin or move there not ready for.

[tactic]

yes

This is a good question. The hip-hop dancing class at my gym seems to be more like dancing in some fixed routine, with movements simlar to those in exercise videos.

On the other hand, dancing at a club is more like freestyle, and people are close to each other.

Maybe the gym class would help with rhythem, though.

I'd like to find a class teach you how to dance for clubbing.

I go to the gym hip hop classes. All the moves are very nice to do in clubs, and as you get better, you get a great rithm, and your moves just come natural, and you turn into a fantastic dancer.
Plus, there is a bonus that there are only 3, 4 guys in there, and like 30 girls, so i get to know a lot of beautifull girls, that also LOVE dancing and going out. 2 in 1

 

[tactic]

learn to break dance

 

[Kineti[C]harm]

yes and it will also give you more confidence and bodystability and endurance etc

 

[Hollowpoint]

Obviously the answer is yes.

I'd go a for a dance class sometime as well, didn't get the.....uh, oppurtunity to do so when I was in res though. I found that my martial arts training also helped because I knew instinctively where all my limbs were going.



Though I'm not saying punch and kick your way to Don Juanism!

 

[squirrels]

Can't hurt it. The question is do YOU want to learn to dance?

 

[napoleon]

I want to learn to dance. Maybe you guys hink it's gay but I enjoy dancing.

 

[Player_Supreme]

When hip hop first started I was there teaching it. I still teach it as a cool down for my exercise classes that I teach for 24 hour work out.

Hip hop will teach you how to move your body to the beat. Nothing is worse than seeing a guy or girl dancing off beat.

If your really want to improve your hip hop take a tap dance class for the rhythm lesson with your feet that you will learn.,

I would take a salsa class also. latin dance teaches you how to move women and dance close with them and take control like a man.
