Is she fun to dance with and is she willing to follow?
Most women can follow if led well.
Sadly, some instructors TRAIN the ability to follow out of their dancers.
This is fine if all you want from dancing is a bunch of silly ribbons.
If you want to be able to follow anyone, you must pay a much higher price.
You must dance, dance dance and then dance some more!
Go to every local dance you can find and never turn down a man who asks for a dance. (Well, not quite never.)

Someone who is as dedicated as yourself and close enough to practice frequently. Good chemistry is important so you can experience with moves and push each other.

I do not dance with drunks, guys who stink with BO or cheap after shave or anyone that is not a gentleman.

It’s very important to have the same mind set and goals but be logically about achievements. Similar experience is also helpful and a good sense of humour. You will need that as dancing is difficult as it is!

Prefer HEALTHY looking, in good or excellent physical condition gentlemen/man - NON SMOKERS !!!! and preferably NON and/or moderate drinkers. I take good care of myself and my health and would want that same quality reflected in a partner, especially so when the "Dating" box is checked !

I love a broad range of dances and dance with everyone at social dances. I would like to practice with someone to increase proficiency and perhaps develop a friendship that might grow into other areas. Having fun is the main goal! :-)

I like to be on the floor most of the time at a dance. Socializing is secondary. I am moderately experienced at most dances. I appreciate a good strong lead, and like to learn new styles, steps.

The proficiency and goals are pretty important to accomplishing set plans. Then distance is important to be able to practice on a consistent basis.

~~~ GOALS : if you're not on the same page, if both expect a different outcome, it can't work in the long run ~~~ DISTANCE : huge problem, for all levels of dancers no matter the dance form ~~~ CHARACTER-match : biggest problem for all of us ;)

[Private]

♦ Proficiency
♦ Goals
Distance is the priority followed by proficiency and shared goals. If you have to trek half across the uk, it’s just not sustainable. Other factors are important but if you can get the above 3 right, it’s a great starting point.

BOTH partners having fun dancing is the most important factor !
