Dance Like Nobody Is Watching? Fact or Fiction?

*If you say you dance as a means of self expression, then how can you express anything if no one is watching you?*
If you are really into self expression then you should dance like everyone is watching. If you dance to make everyone happy then you won't look like a tool to everyone in the room if you are trying to impress one person.
I always watch other people dance. Not necessarily judging them or at least not cruelly. Sometimes I dance like nobody is watching if I am toasted but dance exactly the same when I go out on straight nights.
And Mr PuffNStuff, I also need a whole lotta space.
-----------------------
If you want to find east, look directly at the sun.
 
If I were to see myself on the floor now dancing like I was 2 years ago, I would have to walk up to me and give me a slap and yell "you're doing it all wrong you fool!"
I'm sure in another 2 years I will look back at now and think how much of a shit dancer I was.
I don't usualy laugh if someone is a crap dancer but if their really bad sometimes I feel like walking up to them and saying "just step in time to the beat" if their not even doing that. I'm not sure if they would take it as an insult or not.
Being able to dance like no one is watching is usully easy for me, though there is a really fine line between having too many people around or not enough. If there are too many, then I usually end up hitting people or steping on them (epecially since im a silly eyes closed or glasses off person). If there arn't many people on the floor then they all MUST be up the back looking at me dancing like a fool.
Towards the end of the night most of those problems go because I've let go and because most of the people who hang around till the end are going to be silly dancers anyway :)
Heres an idea, if you think your dancing sucks just to dance next to people who are REALLY crap. That way if someone sees you dance they will think you are good compared to them. :)
 
i absolutly LOVEEEEEE dancing!! :D :D :D
and i dance the same if im by my self, or if there is a whole room of ppl watchin me, i dnt care! i have 2 admit i look at how other ppl are dancing, but its while im dancing and its usually cause they are a FUCKING MAD dancer, i love watching ppl going offffff
argghhhhh!!! GO HARD OR GO HOME!!!!
tehehe, :)
 
yeah..
i dance to enjoy myself....for all i know i might dance worse than Elaine from seinfeld but as long as Im having a good time then everyone else can think what they like :)
 
just thought i might bump this,
but neways...I LOve dancing, even if people think i do suck, its like Im not even there!
*apologies to all the people i have knocked over, hit or stepped on your feet whilst im going nuts*
 
I dance like I've had a big line of coke and everyone is watching because I'm the best dancer in the world.
Pray to god I never get filmed dancing, because I know I dance like a moron.
Worse dancer I've seen was this person who was twitching double time to the beat. I thought she was taking the piss at first, but I soon came to realise she wasn't.
 
depends on the who i am with, if i am with friends who dont go out and dance, no way!, but as soon as they turn there head i slide that shit :P
and if i am with friends that do dance, hell man ill dance to a ring tone on a phone, the sound of a train.
Ow yeah i need everyones help, how is this for a head fuck, everytime you see a cop or a cop car go past, start dancing and point at the car or cop as if there the man, if everyone does it the cops will freak out!!!
 
It is true, i like to think nobody at all is watching me dance, and i do dance like nobody is watching me, otherwise i wouldnt be dancing at all
-funk-i
 
People think that others are watching them and actually care. When you walk into a room no one is looking at you.
They are sitting there thinking "I wonder what this person thinks of me"...
When you dance know that people dont care about how you dance they are wondering more how they look themselves.
I dance full of smiles and move how the music takes me. When I dance I look around the room and get off on the other people smiling right back at me. Even if they are sitting but having a good time it is all magic to me :)
The world is a wonderful place and dont let it slip bye wondering how you look in it.
 
i agree w/ stompr, i've started wearing caps & visors now & i don't notice ppl watching me anymore
i'm mostly off in my own little world, then turn around & friends & randoms are watching me, i like getting in2 the music & having fun, if ppl are watching me it gives me a confidence boost
i c that if ppl watch u 4 a while they like your style
TC
 
I love dancing, but I get very tired very quickly, so if my dancing looks good, it is almost certainly nullified by the panting mess I am afterwards. But who really cares. I dance like no-one is watching, except I have to keep in mind that there may be others closeby, otherwise i'll end up spinning smacking people all over the place...so no, I don't really dance like no-one is watching.
 
My main dancing style takes up so much friggen room that I always get people staring at me.. I'm a very self-concious person so I'm always wondering what people are thinking...thought lately I've been thinking less and less about people watching me when I'm dancing. *shrug* I dunno, I just love to dance.
 
My only hope is that people don't all start dancing the same way, goshdarnit!
With 'liquid', 'rave', 'techno' etc. seeming like they're becoming established 'styles' in their own right (if they aren't already), I won't be surprised if say ten or twenty years down the line, the oldies (read: us) will be gathering in daggy 'electronic' or dare I say it, 'RAVE' clubs, gut spilling out of faded and dusty nylon pants, dancing along in sync with each other... kinda like how those strange people used to dress up in black suit and gown for those pfft, 'ballroom parties!' BWAHAHAhaha... hmmm.
And a one and a two and a...
 
i used to dance like no one is watching. who cares if i dance like a manic or a retard. im enjoying myself. but its kinda bad at times coz i keep hitting those ard me :|
and i used to love to watch those really cool dancers. esp the one small dude with the cap .... maybe some of u may know who im talking about. :)
and then there was this girl that is always dressed in white. she is fantastic!! :D
as for me, i dance like a mad dudette :
so dun come too close unless u wanna get a black eye or something. :P
but then again ... i prefer to sit and watch ;)

When I dance, which is rarely these days I don’t really give a rats who may/may not be watching.
I always tend to watch other dancers though, especially if they’re good. Leecie and I were watching this guy at WOTW who looked like he was dancing in a Kylie show, we had bit of a giggle but ultimately we ended up discussing how good he was and how much he looked like he was enjoying himself.
People will always watch and judge others around them, no matter what you’re doing. If I cared what other people thought I’d probably either never dance or go take dancing lessons, but at the end of the day it’s about your own enjoyment and nobody else can take that away from you.
You can watch one guy who knows all the moves and think what a good dancer he is, but the one who will capture your attention is the guy who can’t really dance but has a huge grin on his face.
Tho I must say the good looking bloke who can dance and has a huge grin on his face will always make me take another look ;)
 
Personally i can walk into a club/rave and start dancing right away.I really dont care what anyone thinks of the way i dance,i dance the way i dance and if someone finds that funny than so be it.I do sometimes watch others dance and see if i can pick up a few new moves.I let the music tell me how to move :)
 
I'm a #2, but only cause i'm lazy, unfit and not a speed addict. I love to watch people carve it up though, on any given night out there are at least a dozen people dancing who you could watch all night - they're that good.
I don't laugh at anyone - i couldn't give a fuck how you're dancing, as long as you're having a good time, staying out of my dance space and not standing around to be seen, go for your life. I'm an edge of dancefloor man - observer and part-time boogier who neesds a little breathing space :D .
The only thing i get a giggle out of is big groups of friends that all dance the same, each at their own varying levels of competency.. i find that hilarious. THAT is dancing like YOUR MATES are watching.. and totally fucking lame.
Altho you have to admit, it's a nice ego stroke when people compliment you on your dancing, so I can in some ways understand people who take it seriously - cause for some people, they love dancing, but it also has an element of showing off, to get that little ego stroke. Pretty harmless as long as you're not a twat.
My 2c.
 
plazma reckons that breaks freaks dance like posers... so apparently i dance like a poser!
I love to dance, I dance at home by myself all the time! But I love to dance even more when there are other people around enjoying the music and the moment as much as you. Its not about them being there to watch you- its about enjoying together :)

^ word
nothing like looking to ur side and seeing a random smile, that nod of acknowledgement to the moment and the music, drug-fucked or not.
