Social dance ballroom etiquette Social Dancing Etiquette During the dance, there will be a lot of people sharing the dance floor space together, so paying attention to the dance floor etiquette is very important, allowing everyone to enjoy the dancing time more and no one is willing to dance with people who do not know etiquette. The main thing I write is some of the more common etiquette in the American swing world, but most etiquette can also be practiced at other ballroom dancing parties. If something does not work for you, tell the site manager or teacher. Remember the most important thing to jump in social dance: respect yourself, your partner and the people around you. Dress code: Please do not wear piaji hit people's large earrings, necklaces and other accessories. Do not wear the hand will be designated to people's rings, bracelets and so on. Sharing a dance does not mean sharing germs, please keep personal hygiene and wash your hands frequently. Try not to eat garlic and other delicious taste before dancing, pay attention to oral hygiene! If you sweat more, you can bring a few more clothes, or wipe the towel, please do not wear suspenders / hurdle. Pants pocket is best not to put things, if not installed, leader please put the items in their left pocket, and follower please put in the right pocket. Because swinging requires large movements, it is best to wear flat shoes, soles slippery enough, can circle, kick the time will not fall on the line (so it is best not to wear non-slip shoes and slippers). Please have enough dancing experience before trying high-heeled shoes, stepped on foot by the high shoes can lead to fracture! When people are dancing: Boys and girls can go to invite people to dance, politely extended his hand and asked: "I can dance with you?" On it, do not pull each other's hand on the dance floor drag. Everyone has the right to refuse to dance with others, but it is best to euphemistically refuse, remember that if you refuse someone else, the song can no longer jump with the second person, to jump please wait until the next song began to say. Similarly, you can refuse the invitation with "I have already rejected someone else, so I can not jump this song". When inviting others to dance, do not force others to dance with you, nor interrupt the conversation of others. When dancing: After dancing, please give thanks to your dance partner. When you accidentally step on or hit someone, whether it is not your fault, you should also politely apologize to each other. In the dance process, please pay attention to the situation around! Especially the leader, because the follower's movements are controlled by you, when turning follower, please be sure to pay attention to where the follower to go to prevent injury. Follower also wants to be aware of the situation behind him for the leader. Sometimes I jump high, regardless of the surrounding circumstances, not only will they hit people, your partner will suffer, when no one will be dancing with you ?? If your partner is over-dancing or hurting you (both leader and follower may inadvertently make this mistake), tell your partner right away! If there is a live band, please applaud the band after the performance of each song and thank them for their performances. The higher the dancers, the more they enjoy the playing process. If you do not dance, do not stand in the middle of the dance floor. Instead, stand on the edge of the dance floor or outside the dance floor, giving room for dancing people. Please refrain from asking people about dancing skills at the ballroom dancing party. Many dancers go to enjoy dancing instead of going to class, so even if you ask, they will not necessarily get any meaningful answers. Unless you are familiar with this person, or as far as possible in the teaching or practice consult again. In the same way, please do not give directions to other people's dances. In particular, do not stop during the dancing and start teaching. If you want to say something, please finish the song first, then ask each other: "Can I give you a suggestion?" Or "Do you want to learn what you just did?" Social dance floor is absolutely not allowed to turn the bucket and other aerial dance (aerial)! Most of the most important point: HAVE FUN! Jumping happy, relaxed is the greatest charm of swing! Although it seems a lot, but these etiquette are easy to comply, everything is to allow everyone to enjoy the dancing time happily!
