I feel like not enough people dance anymore. Everyone is too scared of looking dumb and being recording.

This guy is having fun and that’s something to be proud of. Who cares if you look cool, as long as you’re having fun. Having fun is cool AF

I was at a gig last week and allowed myself to be peeved at someone who spilt or threw beer in my hair (I never was sure who did it) and I realised to my horror I had stopped moving enough that if I moved either elbow back they would touch a person.

My inaction had allowed people to claim the space that was rightfully mine. Thankfully an acoustic number came on and that chilled me out a bit, then when a livelier number came on I was able to find space to move again. By the end I was a Plutoid no more. I had cleared my orbit and I could move and dance to my hearts content for at least the last few songs of the night.

Honestly people should never be afraid to dance. In my opinion it doesn’t have to be perfect, if you’re moving and you’re having a fantastic time then I vibe with that. I just love seeing people enjoying themselves.

I get claustrophobic in crowds and that’s why I dance. I have long arms and immaculate flow and can clear space like no one else lol.

The best is when some of my friends leave to get drinks or hit the bathroom and I get to really stretch out to save their spots

That’s a really unique reason to dance and I love it. I feel kindred in a way.
