Question: How do you tell someone they can't dance!?
Theres this girl in my dance class, and we have a HUGE performance coming up in a week!.
She just came into the dance class because our teacher desperately needs people for dance camp!.

This girl CAN'T dance, she watches others when she dances, and she!.!.!. well she is out of beat!.
None of the girls are brave enough to tell her because her sister has been notorious for bashing people up!. Trust me, yesterday I saw a fight where her sister hit this big maori dude!.

She (bad dancer) has also been infamous for being a ***** too!. Gah, she only does the dance class because she wants to be "in" with the popular kids at school!. Like you know, the plastics of my school!. I only do it because I've been dancing for four years now :P

SO HOW DO I TELL HER!?!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Start by telling her the positive side, then slowly break it to her!.!.!. Explain why she really can't dance!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would gather the other girls who feel the way you do together and meet with the teacher!. If that fails, get all the parents together!. That should be done anyways because bullying people are cowards! Remember "United we stand, divided we fall"!. Have that girl kicked out and make sure her sister is reported!Www@QuestionHome@Com

just flat out tell her
i was at a party and the guy that asked me to dance
was a terrible dancer so i just stopped and said "dude, im sorry
you cant dance!.!.!." then i walked away lol
i know it was mean!.!.!.but its the truth!.!.!.the truth hurts lolWww@QuestionHome@Com

that's harsh!.!.that's like saying you're ugly!.!.you cant help it!. dancing should be about having fun!.!.who cares if she's bad!.!.!.she's not hurting you!.!.

now if she's a bit!.ch to you tell her straight up otherwise just be nice!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

if you actually care about this performance get together with all of the rest of the performers and all of you just tell her she sucks !. I doubt her sister will be able to beat up all of youWww@QuestionHome@Com

Get a video camera, record her and show it to her!.

If she still thinks she good, put it up on youtube for everybody to see!.

(don't do it, it's pretty mean)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Go up to her say, "You suck at dancing! You are an embarrassment!" the next day bring some kind of weapon to school so you dont get the sht kicked out of youWww@QuestionHome@Com

Simple, "you can't dance for jack sht!"Www@QuestionHome@Com

well since u have a performance i suggest u and a few others work with her 24/7 until the day!. no need to tell her just show her im pretty sure she knows she cant danceWww@QuestionHome@Com

be str8 up with her!.!.!.and maybe consider taking boxing classes with danceWww@QuestionHome@Com

u don't, it's not your problem!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

well i'd say for 1 day say to everyone something like, we really need to shape up!. hoping she'll get the message!.
then be nice to her!. respect is good for delivering a message!.
give her subtle advice!. as day 3 arrives and that doesnt work, talk with your teacher about being less linenent on the sloppy work!. (more stern!? can tthink of orginal word)!. if the dancer doesnt get the message by day 5 or 6!.!.!.!.YOU go up to her and tell her,"you need to shape up!. we have a performance in a couple days that is HUGE! we dont want to look bad b/c of one person!. we are only as good as our worst dancer!."

try to stay calm!. i know i would want to smack her around too!.
good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com

i know that kind of girl, but you dont tell her cause dancing is about having fun, if she ever asks you am i good or anything like that then sweetly tell her she looks like she is having fun, cause i am sure she is, but that shes not sytycd material or something funny not mean but true!

as for the bit**iness dont be like hey *insert name here* your a Bit** but if she is ever a b*** to you or a good friend and your around call her out, but dont be a b*** about it cause then your no better than her

and i know what you mean about dancing for the love [i do to[12years]] but even if shes just doing it for attention she still probably enoys it, and if those plastics really care that she can dance they'll probably ask her to dance one day then they can be the bi**y ones to tell her she cant dance

hey and a funny fact, my older sis had a girl sort of like that in her class [ust add fat smelll and maybe take away whole plastics thing, this girl just thought she was good]
yeah well she has a baby now [not married, had it like right around her graduation] just a funny fact i thjought i would throw in for a laughWww@QuestionHome@Com
