Dancing ability could be down to genes, according to a new study released today, which reveals that successful dancers are most likely to be Taureans with dark hair, dark eyes, small feet and no siblings.
The process of rhythm co-ordination doesn't come naturally to some people. Although rare, this does affect a very small percentage of the population and is a real disorder known as “beat deafness”.
Maybe you look awkward when you dance because your body isn't matching the tempo of the music. Simply aligning the rhythm of your movements to the beat will make your dancing look a lot more put together. Or, your vibe isn't matching the vibe of the song, making your dancing look off.
Own your movements
Acting confident in your moves will make you feel confident when performing. Telling yourself that you can do it and you are going to kill it will translate into your dancing. Even if a specific move makes you feel really awkward, owning it will make you look way cooler!

It is often thought that some people are “born to dance”, while others have “two left feet” – but in fact, a combination of real-life experience and science shows us that almost anyone can learn to dance well with the right training.
A New Study has figured out why women are better dancers than men! It has to do with the movement in our hips and they say good dancing came down to three characteristics; a greater swing of the hip, asymmetric movements of the thighs, and intermediate levels of arm movement.
A few features stood out as contributing to higher-quality dance: big hip swings, and the right and left limbs moving independently of one another (which the researchers describe as asymmetric arm and thigh movements). The researchers speculate that those moves serve two purposes for heterosexual women.
Dancing is more than a skill, talent, or expression; it is also a way to learn. In every step, a dancer learns a lesson or two about life, and these lessons can extend beyond the walls of the dance studio.

Foot and ankle injuries: Achilles tendonitis, trigger toe and ankle impingement. Knee injuries: patellofemoral pain syndrome. Stress fractures: metatarsals, tibia, sesamoids and lumbar spine. Dancers are also likely to develop arthritis in the knee, hip, ankle and foot.
Repetitive practice of movements and routines may cause participants to get sprains, strains, stress fractures and tendon injuries. Dancers are particularly susceptible to these overuse conditions because repetitive practice is central to dance training.
