Dance Etiquette: Asking Someone to Dance
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.
Anyone Can Ask
Anyone can ask anyone else to dance. Leaders ask followers, followers ask leaders, experienced dancers ask beginners, beginners ask experienced dancers... you get the idea. Some people can find it challenging at first but pushing through the initial fear is so worth it! In a very short time you'll become very good at asking which means you'll dance more and have a great time!
