Dance Instruction:

  • Avoid giving unsolicited dance advice.

Declining an invitation to dance:

  • You are not obligated to say yes to every dance invitation.
  • If you decline a dance invitation it is considered good form to find that person later and ask them to dance.
  • If you decline a dance invitation it is considered bad form to immediately say yes to someone else.

Birthday Jams:

  • Please join in: Dance, clap, and help the birthday dancers celebrate.
  • Try to wait at least eight measures before cutting in.

Hygiene:

  • Dancing is a physical activity and has been known to cause people to perspire.
  • Dress appropriately
