From Zero to Hero-How Dancing Helps Build Confidence in Men

argentine tango lessons in arizonaAre you getting rejected on the dance floor and can’t figure out what it is that you’re doing wrong out there? You know she wants to dance the two step, but she keeps saying “NO!” to you. Is there something that you’re missing?  Let’s discuss what could be getting in your way of your success on the dance floor.

In my experience, the dance floor is a very particular setting, and for those ladies out there who know how to dance, they might be a bit picky. That can be intimidating, however, if you think about it, it’s is a good thing! Probably the most important and impressive thing you could do before going out Country dancing, Latin dancing, or any type of partner dancing, is to take some Private Dance Lessons. Think about it. Girls absolutely love it when some random guy (who looks and smells fantastic, by the way) walks up to them – maybe buys her a drink, then very smooth-like asks her to join him on the dance floor. And when he does…he actually knows what he’s doing!  Guaranteed, she is thinking to herself that there’s no way you’re going to lead her through this dance. Ah, and yet here it goes! You’re swaying her with perfect lead to the beat of the song, catching her completely off guard. What can she say now except, “Wow! Let’s do that again!”. Now that’s a successful night out dancing.

You can get to that confident place on the dance floor in the shortest amount of time with Private Dance Lessons. With one-on-one instruction, you can get lessons tailored to your learning style and speed, so you will absorb more sooner. That means that you can ask her to dance next month instead of next year!

Now that you have taken dance lessons, you’re ready for a solid introduction to whoever you want to ask to dance. Right off the bat, you want to make sure that you’re presentable. What are you wearing? Are your clothes wrinkled? Did you brush your hair before you left? Hopefully you don’t have anything stuck in your teeth from before. These are all things that could get in the way of you getting to know someone, let alone dance with them. First impressions are huge and you want to make sure that you nail this part. The first time she see’s you out there she should should already be thinking about future engagements the two of you might have, so be self-assured and she’ll feel it. When you look good, you feel good!

Another huge part her saying yes to a dance is hygiene. Dancing is going to make you sweat, that’s a given. Make sure you’re nice and showered and smelling great before you go out dancing. What girl want is to be dancing with a guy who smells bad? No one that I know of. Find some nice cologne that you only where out dancing. It’s not so much the sweat that will bother her – she’s sweating too-it’s the smell, so let’s be sure to get this done right. Nice clothes, and some good cologne. Look good, smell good, feel good!

Lastly, it’s very important to try think about what you’re asking of her. Where are you? What kind of dancing is the regular at this venue? You wouldn’t want to go hit up a Salsa club or something, and try and slow dance with a woman. Salsa dancing is perfect if you’re trying to build confidence. In my experience, girls love to salsa dance in particular because its fast, fun and exciting! Also, it has so much room for creativity and other things. Don’t get me wrong, women also love a good slow song or Country dance, but salsa is a great one to know here in the southwest.  When you think about it, salsa, swing, and even two step are dances that no girl would turn down, especially if you already know how to dance, which brings me to my final point.
