What is the proper way to use the dance floor at club dances?
Many dancers and styes of dancing can be accommodated on the dance floor at the same time using dance floor etiquette. Etiquette guidelines are: • Follow the line of dance… Couples should dance counterclockwise around the dance floor for dances that travel such as, waltz, foxtrot, polka and tango. Don’t go against the line of dance for more than a few steps. • Stay in the proper section of the dance floor….. Faster moving couples should stay to the outside of the dance floor. Slower moving couples should stay to the inside of the dance floor to avoid blocking or running into other dancers. Non-circling and spot dances, such as swing and rhumba, use the center of the dance floor. • Only dancers are on the dance floor when the music is playing.
