Dance Etiquette: How Did I Do?
Following dance floor etiquette helps everyone to have fun. Simply put, it means being courteous and respectful to those around you. It's more important for a social dancer to be a considerate and thoughtful partner than to be a technically expert dancer. Following the rules and suggestions given here will help you to become a successful and appreciated dance partner.
Measure of Success
To truly measure the level of your success ask yourself the following questions:
Was my dance partner smiling?
Did she (or he) have a good time?
Did I have a good time?
Did the two of us look like we were dancing *together*?
If you can answer yes to all of these questions, you are truly a successful dancer and you'll never lack willing partners!
