well don't be so afraid. just be yourself. even if a nerd asks you to dance at least you will be dancing with somebody. but be yourself. you dint have to change because every bode else thinks it is bad. that doesn't make any seance. I'm going through the exact same problem but i dint care at all. so when you burst in through the doors to the prom , have a big mile on and let everybody know that I'm unique in my own way so don't hate appreciate.

Go to a dance school. My parents teach dancing and make total noobies like you pros.

Itll help a whole lot and its not way too expensive.

GO TO DANCE CLASS OR HAVE YOUR FRIEND TEACH YOU.

when u dance with a guy let them lead u and when dancing by ur self just go with lthe flow lol

Try listening to music and finding the beat. When you find the beat and can recongize it easily you will be able to have rythm and with the stiffness that is probally more becuase you are nervous. Just praticing going out with your crush and geting used to dancing with him but warn him (jokingly) that you are so stiff when you dance and you need to be loosen up you guys will not only have fun but get better at dance but remeber HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!

ahhh the pitfalls of having no rhythm! Some lucky ones are born with the natural ability to glide across the dance floor and some aren't. LUCKILY, for those clumsy dancers ... there are many classes available to help the "dance challenged" learn to relax and find the beat. Enroll in a dance class at the YMCA or find a buddy at school who is willing to take some time out of his/her day to practice with you. If all fails... relax, have fun, and enjoy your prom despite your insecurities about dancing. You may find that your date will think your two left feet are endearing! OR you could seek out a date who is also a poor dancer. You could take some dance classes TOGETHER and have fun preparing to hit the dance floor when prom rolls around. Have fun regardless!

if your talking about gridning.. just move your hips like a sideways 8

or if your talking about dancing in general with like friends and stuff just move your hips to the beat ... look like your having fun ... or look up dances onn you tube or watch music videos to see what they do!

SHAKE IT ;) haha
but seriously just let go! as soon as you start moving your feet and hips and even your arms (just a little) it will look a lot(!) better :)
good luck hun ;)

All that you can really do is practice. Feel the rhythm of the music and dance to it! You will soon get the hang of it if you put in your best effort and patience! Besides, if a guy won't go to prom with you just because you aren't a great dancer, he's probably not worth it.
