Dancing is a very good excercise and it relax us too but I cannot dance my body is stiff its really difficult for me and moreover I feel conscious that somebody might be seeing my steps so I usually don't dance used to make some excuses when the situation comes..How about you, do you dance anywhere in the gatherings or functions or party or alone in room etc?

I'll dance anywhere. As long as I'm feeling good and enjoying it - who's got the right to judge? Honestly, I held it against my husband, still do actually, that he won't dance with me out of fear of "doing it wrong". Just do it. You can't be wrong.

I love dancing and I used to dance a lot. Now I don't because my boyfriend doesn't like it at all. We hardly ever have danced together and sometimes it upsets me. I know that dancing isn't difficult, at parties dancing is body moving more than a professional shake and break around but many people are afraid of looking silly, I dunno. I rather look silly but dance. I like that relaxing feeling you can get from dancing with a nice music.

Hell yeah i dance..... Earlier i was reluctant and felt ashamed in dancing in front of everyone.....but now i just go with the music.... I dont say that i dance very well but yes i dAnce the way one should.... One should dance in such a way that he feels his spirits lifted up and feels his body is free....no limitations....then comes the enjoyment that you want from dancing..... And for those who feel reluctant....dance like no one's watching.....just ignore the face around you ....they are all busy dancing they are not looking at you....

I dont dance. I only get to dance when Im in school or when no one is watching me. I do like to learn how to dance. I find people who love to dance very energetic and they feel happy and more relaxed.

I dance all the time now for exercise and it is great. I don't do it around other people though lol i don't know.. i'm too shy to dance in front of people although i probably shouldn't be. i watch myself in the mirror in my room and i think i dance pretty good. its fun and it does help me feel relaxed afterwords. i'll dance in front of people when i have been drinking though but i'm not so sure its good dancing then lol

I will only dance in the privacy of my own home when it is just me and the kids. I will not dance in public or in front of my husbnad. I feel too self-conscious for that. When I was younger, I didn't mind dancing in public, and did quite often. I stopped after the first time I realized how many people were paying attention to me. I had been out dancing one night and when I went to work the next day, my boss and a few co-workers teased me and asked me if I planned to go out dancig that night too. I haven't danced in oublic since!

I am a closet dance freak! I dance by myself in my room and if i'm at a club with friends I just let myself go. I've learned that most people are too concerned with themselves to worry about what the next person is doing so just break it out. I remember going to a club and a guy was dancing really funny, i just smiled and he made me feel good, not because his dancing was terrible but because he didn't care. Dancing is about having fun and letting loose. practice at home and with friends have a few drinks.

My children and I dance around the house for fun, we turn up the music and just boogie. My 18 month old loves it, and my 6 year old just finds it fun to do things as a family. My husband and I used to go out to dance when we were little younger, and had a regular baby sitter but it's been a few years since that's been a possiblity. Why worry about everyone else, and what they think. If you are having fun, then that's all that matters. Too many people back down from the things they like to do because they are worried about what others will think.... so go out there and boogy down til the sun comes up!

I can dance anywhere as long as there are a lot of people dancing too but I can still remember that one time in a bar when I was with my girl but she is my ex now. We were the only once dancing to a tune of some love song. It was valentines day, it was sweet and I cant forget about that. I loved every minute of it and I never did care about the stares directed at us. hahaha! I totally loved dancing with her really close. man.. oh man.. memories..

It is a very good exercise indeed and I love the flow of the music and bodies going around the dance floor. Before I used to dance for the school and all but now I just dance for fun in bars and other party places. I love dancing though dancing does not love me that much. You dont have to be an expert, just go with the flow and let the rythm take you there but dont overdo it though. hahaha!!

I will not say that I am a good dancer but I dance anywhere the mood strikes. I do not get embarrassed at all so I just have fun in life. I dance to the music in my van, my girls and I dance around the house, if I am somewhere and a song I like comes on I will dance to it. I don't care where I am at the moment. If a song that I am trying to pick fun of comes on I will sometimes do a "cheesy" dance showing that I am picking fun of the song. I have embarrassed many people in public :)

Hi! dancing is one of my passions.Since high school I always participated with lots Intrams,group dance contests,mass demonstrations,school fests,family gatherings.Though I still dance now with my daughters or even alone at home.Just last July 2008,we had our high school grand silver anniversary.We had a dance number with some of my batchmates.I really do love dancing since for as long as it is wholesome.Perhaps that is also one of the reasons why I feel so energetic and always on the go.

i love dancing! when i was a kid and cleaning the house, i turn on the music and dance while cleaning the house haha, then in school i secretly wished i can join the dance group but i was not as good as they are so i did not join =( i just put my best in dance class where we have to perform and be graded. then in college, i joined an organization and when there was a dancing competition, i was more confident to join the audition and i passed and joined the team in performing. i plan to enroll in a gym with a dance session one of these days
