We need more music enjoyers, not music mixers. We need keepers of the vibe, who don’t leer or act like they’re in a music video or act like they’re shooting a music video. We need people who know how to keep space and be gracious. We need dancers with etiquette and heart. You don’t even need to be on beat to be a good dancer. You just need kindness and a love for the music.

Why is dancing not more common? Bad dancing, good dancing, stupid dancing. It’s so freeing to just move to music especially with other people. i guess everyone wants to be nonchalant now :(

one metric of the health of a dancefloor ecosystem is how willing groups are to intermingle and dance with other groups
complimenting someone’s dancing is one way to improve the health of such an ecosystem and bridge gaps between dancefloor micro-communities
it’s my favorite compliment to give and receive. and giving is better than receiving and also in a lot of ways the same thing as receiving

a study issued last month found that dancing is the most effective way of treating and mitigating depression. Walking, therapy, and yoga also outpaced SSRIs. and if you're saying 'oh this was probably funded by Big Dance', there's no evidence of that and if you're saying 'that's just what a Big Dance shill would say', well honey you're right
