How to Guarantee She Will NEVER Dance With You Again

/in /by

Are you a guy that takes dance lessons? If so, that’s wonderful! For a man, Salsa, Swing, Country or Tango dance lessons build confidence, help to relieve stress and are a great way to develop self-expression. Dance lessons also give you a chance to be romantic with your sweetheart. They even help balance, coordination and rhythm, of course. Whether you started learning to dance because you have come to the conclusion that every woman loves a guy that can dance or you are learning for yourself, a guy that can dance is a hot commodity in any social situation. That is, until he does one of the following 3 things below taking himself from “HOT!” to “NOT!”. Men, read the following information carefully. If you want to ensure that she will NEVER say yes to a second dance, try any of these things below and see what happens for yourself. Here we go….

1. Don’t shower: While a “manly man” is attractive from afar, close up, it’s just not that much fun to be pressed against someone smelly. Before heading out to any dance floor, make sure that your teeth and hair are brushed and that you are smelling clean. A little cologne never hurts, but please don’t overdo it.

2. Yank her around the dance floor: There is nothing more uncomfortable that being treated like a rag doll on the dance floor. Finesse is key while dancing with a lady. Yes, even in Country Western dancing, finesse makes us ladies feel like princesses instead of a wild horses that need to be tamed. You CAN show her a great time on the dance floor and still keep her arms in their sockets. As a dance instructor, I like to teach my leaders to protect their followers on the dance floor. I use the analogy of treating her like an egg that is delicate. This is not to say that she needs to be treated with kid gloves, but she should be cared for and looked after on the dance floor to give her a good time and allow her to feel swept off of her feet.

3. Show Off: Listen carefully guys…partner dancing is about your lady. Yes, you get to be in control, but it is for the purpose of taking care of her (see above), not making it a competition on the dance floor as to who everyone should watch. A common analogy that I often use in my dance lessons is that he is the frame and she is the picture. He needs, therefore, to be a support for her to be able to shine. Eyes should be on the lady because the guy is making her look so amazing.

While some of these “don’ts” are obvious, many leaders are unaware of how and what partner dancing is all about. Two people moving as one happens when we have a leader that can take care of his follower. Get these great tips and more in your private dance lessons at Dance FX Studios in Mesa, Arizona.

Dance Lessons for a New YOU This Year!

/in , /by

Your resolutions for 2013, a brand-new and what promises to be your most “enlightened” year yet, are hanging on the fridge: lose weight, meet more friends-maybe even that “special someone”…, learn a new hobby, find a way to de-stress from work. Do these sound about right? If so, you’re not alone. The beginning of a new year is the perfect time to envision a better version of you, one that is happy and heathy in all of the key areas; mental, physical, spiritual and emotional.

Did you know that there are few things in life that meet all of your personal growth needs and that dancing is one of them? Yes, learn to Salsa dance or try to Tango and see how many of your 2013 resolutions come true. You may be thinking, “How does learning to Two Step help me become less stressed? Learning to dance is something I dread!” Let’s explore just 3 of the numerous ways that dancing can enhance your life.

1. Dancing releases endorphins: Looking for that natural high without hitting the gym? Get your heart pumping and your feet moving and see how good you feel after an hour on the dance floor! Swing dancing alone can burn over 350 calories in the span of 60 minutes. Mix up your time on the dance floor with a little Salsa dancing or some Country Two Step and see how even your gluts will take on a new shape without even trying. While the blood starts pumping an you’re getting wrapped up in the fun of it all, the release of endorphins will have you dancing to a new tune. You can’t help but be in a great mood when your body is kicked into high gear. With a loosened body, your mind will follow and all that is good will begin to take shape. It is much easier to put things into perspective when your body and mind are healthy.

2. Dancing is Exciting:  Take a dance lesson and see for yourself how much fun you’ve been missing! With dance classes, you can not only meet new people who share similar interests, but you can learn a new skill that sets you apart from the everyday person who simply “fakes it” on the dance floor. While it may be intimidating to get started, once you begin, you will see how learning to dance can provide the perfect amount of challenge and thrill that you have been seeking.

3. Dancing is Romantic: Not a thrill-seeker? Well, consider learning to dance as a romantic and more personal way to connect with others. The idea of moving as one in the Argentine Tango conjures up thoughts that would make most women swoon. This year, you can be that suave guy on the dance floor or that elegant woman who really shines.
