Texas Two-Step FTMFW. That’s one of thes many advantages of living in Texas and the few of living in Huntsville(2 night clubs both play country and 1 is a big dance hall/honkey tonk). I can dance well enough to have women talk to other women about how good I am but I completely lack any semblence of ‘game’ to close on 'em. Your game is far more important than your feet at a night club or bar. At least here though it’s “manly” to be good at dancing well country dancing at least.

How are men supposed to dance at clubs? There is no worse feeling than being the guy on the sidelines when everyone is on the dance floor having a blast, but how exactly are men supposed to dance?
Let’s face it, girls dominate the dance floor by their sheer numbers, but it’s not as if you could learn to dance by watching them. “Dance” for women consists of gyrating like pseudo-strippers; definitely not something a man should attempt!
After that there are the “side to side” shuffle dudes. They look so awkward it’s painful to watch.
Aside from that my only reference point is Usher… but who the fuck dances a choreography at a club?
So… and instructions or vids would be helpful. Thanks[/quote]
In dancing, like alot of things in life, the harder you try - the dumber you’ll look. Just have fun and itll shine through and girls will gravitate to you HELL!

I’ve always been of the opinion that it’s manly to enjoy what you’re doing. Do what you like, and try to do it well. I like dancing, although at this point there’s nobody really around to dance with if it’s not grinding. I’m in danger of getting rusty.
Besides, at this point I’m big enough that nobody is going to tell me I’m a pussy for enjoying dancing, especially after their girl comes up to ask me to dance (which has happened before, completely unprovoked–I don’t fuck with taken girls). I LOLed.
You could take a bunch of acid and learn to Tut or liquid.
I wouldnt try it at a club tho, its still good to learn.

last time I danced in a bar it was SUCH a relief to dance with a guy who knew a lil waltz, salsa, and swing in addition to the typical bump and grind. It was fun and easy to follow his lead, and pretty awesome to realize we’d cleared a space on the floor by the time the song was finished. When the other women in the area found out we weren’t dating, he got many phone numbers and free drinks. I lol’d.
This is where it’s at. I’m telling you, I suck so bad at your typical hip hop club dancing its not even funny…but if you want to swing or salsa, I can go all night. To me personally it’s much more enjoyable than being in the club scene, which I would rather avoid unless a date really really wants to go dancing… West coast “swing” is a variation you can do with most club music as well (provided you have a partner that knows the steps). As a bonus, it looks extremely badass to people who only know how to grind. Sexy and classy at the same time.
The sad part is all the videos on youtube of WC swing are super cheesy ballroom style. Except this. This is cool, although they get the entire floor to use instead of just a little space in the crowd. You just stay a lot closer together in a crowd, which makes it better anyways.
Thanks Ara, that’s some awesome stuff!! My goal is to learn that shit now!!
Totally. Fucking. Worth. It.
That is all.
Ain’t easy (isn’t as hard as it probly seems if you get regular lessons though), but holy shit is it fun when you get a girl that knows how to move. As a bonus, like CBear mentioned, you get lots of #s if you end up going club dancing with a partner you’re not dating.
EDIT–here’s another cool video I ran across by accident actually. With a really fucking hot chick! Ben Morris & Jessica Cox Improv West Coast Swing - YouTube
Only the first 2:30 is worth watching as WC. The rest is other stuff.[/quote]
Dat dude is leik in all the Swing videos on youtube I bet this dude is swimming in high school pussy. Lucky SOB i wish i was that cool in high school…

Well hes still lucky none the less
A close friend of mine was a terrible dancer in high school, and taught himself to swing dance by sheer force of will. It’s incredible to watch. And he can make even me feel like I can dance.
Also, absolutely agreed – you’re manly if you enjoy what you’re doing.
if your a real man you just go and fucking dance you pussy you dont think about it, you dont care what other people think u just go u listen to the music and you fucking dance, let loose have fun ffs
dont stero type yourself and put yourself in a stupid box bro, bitch ass men who are to self concious to dance are the little girls not dudes who bust out n get into it. u can still keep it manly use your shoulders heaps n upper body bob your fucking head to the beat get into it
I prefer it Euro training style, just bring some dumbbells and your good to go.
If you don’t get chicks after this dance, well then you never will.

Copy this dude. He makes it look easy tho. Just practice moving your hips to the beat by moving your legs and even stiff ass dudes like us can be decent enough to get some pussy after the club.

Nobody made a PX joke yet?
Edit: Somebody did make a PX joke back on page 3, actually.
If you had to ask, don’t do it!
There is some good advice in this clip.
Don`t forget the flashlights.
Yah I can’t dance for shite and I would like to have one simple move down…I think I get just get bored very quickly and I’m just too stiff…I try to loosen up and it doesn’t happen…i can’t even get hammered enough to think I’m a good dancer anymore.
I do love to watch women dance, it’s like the sexiest thing ever!
Damnit!
Holy crap! You have the same plan I have!
Did we just become best friends?

Good question. I often think about this.
When I’m in private I can be fairly loose but clubbing, I tense up almost like a deer in the headlights.
Anyway, my plan has been to get super-flexible and just do a few graceful moves and let that be it. Somebody might think that’s a little effeminate but they would be forced to give credit, ultimately. This requires perfect execution (although being drunk sort of gives one an excuse) and some good space so I’m not crazy about it but I’m looking forward to this. [/quote]

That’s cool. Right now I’m drinking my whey laced with alcohol so I’ll have lower inhibitions and raised pain tolerance as I go outdoors to do my stretches which are quite challenging.
