Ah, yes... DANCE! Love all kinds and especially ballroom queer dancing! Throw in Salsa and hell, CW & Swing!

Looking for a dance followthat is serious about weekly practice in the East Bay, CA. No, this isn't a dating thang! To be good at partner dancing, practice is a must and it takes having consistant practice partners that have or are taking dance lessons.

Well, I can post a youtube video but I can't view it (thanks to work blocks), and Jack already listed my favorite one, so I'll just say that I love dance.

I love dance like someone who has had dance in their family for generations and has danced before they could walk, even though I can't do much more than a bit of social dancing. It's in my blood though. I feel the music in my veins; its healing and inspirational powers. It's what kept me alive and sane during some seriously rough patches in my life.

I absolutely adore shows like SYTYCD and RJ's ABDC, that promote not only dance but the DANCERS....the fire that stirs in them...the joy that comes from them when they dance. They have some of the world's best choreographers working those shows and it's not uncommon for me to say, "Whaa?" and replay certain moves and holds, blocks, and hooks over and over.

If I could be anyone....anything....in this world, I'd be a professional dancer. Unfortunately, genetics aren't on my side, but what happens in the confines of my bedroom and living room isn't up for debate, right?

What happens at home stays at home. :blink:

My daughter is real surprised when I take her to dance class. Cause every once in awhile I do some dance moves. She knows I can but she is just putting in the factor, that I am an adult and her mom. I have told her though I did not take breathing classes for when I heard her. I took 2 dance classes. :)

Yes, I count it as a dance just to let you know. And FYI, when I took my senior pictures I brought along with me my flags & rifle and never took em back. I have taught my daughter how to twirl a flag, she shall learn me though... :)

No one did dance bigger or more grandiose in the movies than Busby Berkeley. He was genius in choreographing huge production numbers using hundreds of dancers and capturing elaborate syncopated sequences using crane and dolly shots. Here are a few samples of the most well-known Berkeley numbers from Gold Diggers 1933 and 1935, and a montage of various musical scenes. The clips take a couple of minutes to get into the height of the numbers, but if you're patient they are worth the watch. Enjoy.

I'm a huge fan of the arts. With particular interest in visual and performance. I also love to laugh and have fun...this troupe is outrageously talented and you will have a great time if you get a chance to see them.

He's not my favorite dancer by a long shot.
But Fred Astaire's routines are legendary. Here are two of the many.

Pure innovation.

Ann Miller
was known for being a fast tap dancer, her routines on film are classic and in the ranks of Astaire and Kelly.
She had an incredibly strong presence on screen, not just for her dancing.
This is a montage of clips of some of Ann Miller's best work set to music.
Ann Miller died in 2004. Enjoy the legend.

Judy wasn't known as a dancer, but she could dance.
Almost everyone had to sing and dance under the studio system whether they liked it or not.
These clips are of classic, highly-stylized tap numbers to torch and swank.

I'm a fan of the lap dance.

I am too. I am a fan of all dance forms, I also like pole dancing. And i do not like when people say that is wrong. If you use it in a "good way" you know how much muscle you can get from swinging on a pole. That stuff is hard work. But I also like twerking, its an artform cause I cant shake it like that...lol
