I started breakdancing in 1982 in the LA suburbs. In the Summer of 1990 I met the love of my life. She was studying dance and went hard at it for the better part of the next decade. She never completely became professional, but was good enough to go to NY and study with Merce Cunningham and often danced publicly. In February of 1991 a friend said "hey, you want to go to a rave?" Hooked. From Winter of 91 to Summer of 95 I went to multiple raves in the SF Bay Area every week (sometimes three or four). From 95 to 2001 I went to a couple a month (sometimes three of four). From then until now I still go occasionally. I'm not a great dancer, but I know how to dance. I can keep time (musician) and I don't look stupid. I can generally get women to dance with me by just being out on the dance floor having a good time (unfortunately, if I'm really having a good time I don't always notice, because I often close my eyes lol ). Also, I was never an annoying fuck boi, trying to rub my junk all up on your personals, which helped. lol But decades of riding skateboards and dancing until the sun came up have absolutely wrecked my knees, ankles and left hip. Makes me sad, because I absolutely love to dance. It's one of the few times in my life when I felt completely free and at peace. It's a hard feeling to describe, honestly, and one that I'm going to miss. But hey, I'm 45 and I danced for over thirty years, which is something to be happy about.

Writing this made me realize how much I miss it.

Thanks for sharing. And I think you deserve a pass like the rest of us who have gotten older and can't quite do it on the dance floor like we used to. Doesn't matter. If the groove still moves you, let it do so.

Bout as good as prince but he got me due to I can't dance in 6 inch heels. I can dance in 4ince boot heels though. Unlike like prince though I was dancing and thought it was a great ideal to backflip off the stage I was performing on into a complete split and when I landed I heard something pop but kept dancing lol. But I been jumping off shit since a little kid into splits because I thought I was the nicholas bros, Sammy Davis, Gregory Hines, James Browns, Fred Astir, Jeffrey Daniels, and Michael Jackson. For my nasty dances I thought I was a male stripper version of Prince lol. Young Dirty Mind causing Controversy around my schools especially college. I stopped dancing a lot due to me having crohn's disease and arthritis.

that depends on the music of course. And i don't consider anything like that beyonce and stuff to be 'dance', it's just choreography of studied moves, nothing to do with dancing. Dancing should be creative, from the heart and stomach rather than the brain.
That said, i cant go to the disco without getting pushed to do my Wacko Jacko biggrin Supposed to be good but i dont consider it dancing either since it's just studied moves.

I always preferred my George Michael when it comes to those fixed things, but otherwide funk and disco and we have a party on our hands! razz
The best to dance to is The Time!!
