And everyone that I dance in front of says I am a natural dancer but I am scared of dancing in front of my friends like at school dances and stuff..[oh and if you havn't figured it out yet I'm talkin about hip-hop and dirty dancing] Anyways..

just do your thing,
If you really love dancing you'll forget about the people watching you and you shouldnt really care about what you look like anyway because your expressing yourself.

its just like this quote i heard:

"dance like no ones watching."

ME TOO
i think because we are don't have self confidence,
but i don't know ... i'm just waiting too for the other answers

Just dance and forget that anyone is looking. If you're that good, people will stop and watch and be inspired!

Just do it. You practice enough so you know how it feels. Anyway, everyone else is feeling the same as you and isn't paying any attention to you. Just focus on the person you're dancing with & the rhythm of the beat

Enjoy.

You need to get over it. You're not always going to have a mirror in front of you to make sure you constantly look good dancing.

I think that if your confidence is low is just your shy or you don't think you good enough. Now, I'm not saying you're a bad dancer but if you want to dance you have to get over this fear.

My advice would be to find a dance studio that has mirrors so you can see you're self and there are still other people there that can see you. Hopefully this will help you get over your fear.
