C'mon Men- Let's Get Dancing!

Calling all men! Have you been out or attended an event lately and noticed all the lovely ladies dancing? Have you thought to yourself- I wish I knew how to dance, so I could ask one of them to dance with me? More than likely, this is a scenario that is all too familiar with a lot of men. If you’re tired on sitting on the sidelines watching everyone else have fun, it may be time to do something about it. You need to learn to social dance!

It used to be that women who wanted to dance had to either go it alone or drag their unwilling partner along to try to have a good time. Well, that is changing!  Many men nowadays are beginning to realize that if they want to impress or keep up with the ladies, they’re going to have to put their objections aside and learn to dance. If your lady is happy, then you will also be happy and dancing is so much fun and easy to learn!

At Dance FX Studios, we can get you on the fast track to becoming an awesome dancer. We know that many of you think that dancing isn’t “manly” or you don’t have the time for it. Well, that is certainly not the case. Currently, at our studio, believe it or not, the majority of our students taking private dance lessons are men and they are loving it! Not only are they learning a new skill that they will use over and over again for any occasion, but they are having a great time while doing so.

We know it can be a little intimidating to walk into a dance studio and admit that you need some help. But, please know that you are not alone. We applaud the men who have the courage and determination to recognize that learning to dance is maybe a little out of their comfort zone, but still take the steps to do something about it anyway. Whether you want to learn Country dancing or spicy Salsa, we can help to get you there.

Something that might not have occurred to you is how beneficial dancing can be for anyone. For those of you who may be a little shy or lack confidence in yourself, come and take some dance lessons. You will see how learning to social dance will help to boost your fortitude and self- esteem.  As you progress in your lessons leading your instructor around the dance floor, you will begin to gain the confidence, skills and moves you need to become an awesome leader. We have witnessed this many times over with our male students and it is so rewarding and inspiring to see this transformation.

Another benefit to dancing is the physical aspects. Have you been a couch potato for too long, or maybe just don’t have the energy to work out after a long day or week at work? Well, time to get off the couch! Dancing will help to drop the pounds and get you back into shape. You may not be aware of this, but dancing for one hour can burn anywhere from 300-450 calories. So, the more you dance, the quicker you’ll start shedding that extra weight and you’ll be having fun while doing it. How great is that? We have many male students who started dancing, not even thinking about losing weight and after dancing awhile, they realized they have lost 30-40 pounds, without trying. They are looking and feeling so good, it motivates them to keep going. Time to grab a partner and swing your way out onto the dance floor!

And, if this isn’t enough, think about the ladies. Any man who is willing to dance is immensely attractive to all women. Women love men who can dance! It shows them that you are strong and confident enough in yourself and your abilities to try something that other men may think is not very masculine. Think about the next time you go out to a club, wedding, or any event where there is dancing, and how great it would be to actually approach a woman you find attractive or your wife, and be able to ask her to dance. Then, to be able to take her in your arms, sweep her off her feet, and lead her around the dance floor, maybe with a passionate tango. Talk about making a great impression!

Any man who takes the time and effort to learn something new to please his wife, girlfriend, or potential partner is showing her how much she means to him. You have listened to her and acted on it- that says a lot about you.  You will be amazed at how this little bit of effort on your part will definitely impact your relationship in such a positive way you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner.
