Hey,

I just came from europe, I loved trance there. I checked everywhere in the internet about trance but they always talk about the DJs, concerts, cds, new releases, but what about how to dance trance?, I saw many ppl dancing this music soo good, that I really want to learn however, I couldnt find a site to learn steps or certain movements.

Joel.

Nothing fucks me off more than a fan that thinks a DJ can do no wrong. There is a lot of good music out there. How some people can be so easily pleased is beyond my comprehension.

Hahaha - dont ask the men (*cough* boys) on this forum how to dance.
Ive seen video that would make your eyes sore.

this sounds cheesy but just dance like how you feel... if you have pvd as DJ, better just jump around until you can no more... you dont even need E to feel totally lucky. if you listen to tiesto (or someone else less underground than pvd, for example avb) simply dance like the others do... dont feel ashamed, i have never seen someone joking about another's dance style.

If you listen to Sasha (progressive), just look intelligent and do some implicative movements... slightly bow to your left, slightly bow to your right... there is no jump around feeling with sasha, but pure listening bliss. you can also break into tears, that attracts more girls.

If you listen to deep dish or similar, simply look totally cool. dont move anywhere, except to the bar. nod your head to the beat and the others will apotheosise you for your coolness.

If you listen to Nu-NRG (or rank1, or any trance live act) you can't just dance. you also have to appreciate the musical skills of the live musicians, which sometimes isnt easy at all. you will have to do some interjections like "i love you!", "will you be the father of my children" or "great 8080/303 sounds" to really appreciate the music...

if you listen to ferry corsten (special case), just freak out with his music. he quickly changes from techno to punk, from trance to progressive... award any change of his style with an adequate exclamation (give it to me ferry... or something even more embarrassing).

And if you have some totally different/underground DJ, just get you some Es... and the evening will be funny automatically.

this should be just a quick guide. you wont be the coolest dancer around if you follow it, but you will have some fun! and thats more important than everything else. good luck....

its all about the music let the music make you dance, ive been to some crazy places, girls in furry bikinis swinging pom-poms and people wearing space suits all have danced their own way and style, and nobody really cares how everyone else is dancing because they're usually too engrossed in the music to take notice

People at my college always asked me how I am able to dance so well. To tell you the truth, I'm not that good dancing, but listening to trance music doesn't require lessons or techniques.

It requires your entire body to move in whatever motion you want it to do.

We create the movement, we create the energy!
