Things could be worse.

Find your nearest bboying (breaking) session and get down to that. People are always nuff friendly and apart from learning actual breaking, you'll get to be a damn good dancer, cos thats what youre doing half the time. Also, it is great for confidence as when you have battles in clubs you have to get out there and do it
Alternatively take up salsa :biggrin:

get a female mate to teach you in exchange for a drink/not talking about football for a month (if you're male)/anything along those lines. Be able to laugh at yourself and get someone to show you, it's really not that hard. Just relax!

Has anyone else actually said that you can't dance?

It's probably all in your head so don't worry!

Get drunk. You'll still dance like a clown, but you won't care. :cool:

Put your hand on your crotch, and point to random people with your other hand. Of course you'll look like a boob, but it'll be bloody funny for everyone to see.

Seriously OP, get yourself down some kinda class, doesnt really matter where. All you need is the confidence to just get out there and do it, and once youve been doing it a bit, youll realise that most people cant dance for **** anyway!

get drunk and wait for a girl to dance on you

Ha. You should even try and dance the robot like Peter Crouch. then finish it off with the old crotch point move.

Zefrank will show you everything you need to know...

ETA: When I left school I got given an award for the "best funky chicken dance", I'll have you know. I've got a certificate and everything.

Note: I wouldn't recommend you actually DO the funky chicken dance, unless you are in a very friendly and open-minded place (or you are full of vodka).

The number one tip from me is:

Move your hips.

Loads of people seem to dance with their arms, but try moving your hips to the music, just to the regular beat, and the rest of your body will feel more normal with it - it looks so much better.

From there, involve your shoulders, so your arms follow them and not the other way round.

That way, your whole body is involved and you look like the funky ****, like me!
