9 Great Club Dancing Tips for Guys
Dance clubs aren’t just for dancing. You can always have a great night at the club if you just hang out with friends and enjoy the music, have a few drinks, and meet some new people. At some point, though, you’re probably going to want to dance because the beat is so sweet or you see someone you’re interested in heading toward the dance floor. Dancing intimidates a lot of men for a lot of reasons, but it doesn’t have to. If you’re a guy who feels self-conscious about dancing at the club, try these tips.
1. Have Fun
First of all, remind yourself you’re going to the club to have a great time. Pick a dance club with an inclusive vibe that welcomes anyone with a great attitude who’s ready for fun, like Onyx Room. You’ll be a lot more confident on the dance floor at a club that encourages people to just be themselves and leave their inhibitions at the door.
2. Check Out Social Media for Dance Moves
Tik-Tok is the perfect place to find instructional videos that focus on single dance moves. If you want more detailed step-by-step instructions, search for dance moves on YouTube. Some of the most popular moves are complicated, but you’ll get better at them if you practice.
3. Loosen Up First
There’s no rule that says everyone has to dance at the club, so don’t feel like you’re required to get up and move. Some guys need a couple of drinks before they have the confidence to hit the floor, while others just want to wait until they hear their favorite songs. If you don’t get yourself into the right mood for dancing, you won’t have a good time on the floor.
4. Don’t Overthink It
Dancing at San Diego nightclubs is all about having fun and being spontaneous. Guys who think too much about dancing will never make it to the floor. If you feel like dancing when the music hits you, just follow your instincts.
5. Be Respectful of Other Dancers
Whether you’re dancing with a partner or a group of people, respect everyone else’s space. You won’t make any friends if you act like the floor is a mosh pit.
6. Know When to Lead and When to Follow
Dance styles like salsa and bachata require guys to lead their partners, but things are different with genres like reggaeton, hip-hop, and EDM. Smart guys who routinely ask women to dance at nightclubs know they don’t have to lead. In fact, they often let their partners take the lead and mirror or complement the ladies’ tempo, rhythm, and moves.
7. Take Dance Lessons
This is by no means a requirement, but guys who subconsciously feel they aren’t good dancers should take advantage of the opportunity to learn some cool moves by taking dance lessons. In San Diego, women flock to dance classes, and a lot of them would love having male partners to dance with during class.
8. Focus on the Beat
Where there’s dancing, there’s a beat. Even professional dancers know their killer moves and complex sequences are pretty lame if they don’t match the beat. For example, hip-hop makes everyone sway and bop. You’ll be fine if this is all you have to bring to the dance floor.
9. Learn Simple Basic Moves
You may have noticed nightclubs play a lot of crossover and collaboration music today. This is great for club dancers because they only need to learn a few basic dance moves. Search online for videos that teach modern dance moves like the two-step, the side-to-side rock, the triangle step, and the bounce. When you can flow between these basic moves, you’ll definitely look good at the club.
If you’re ready to hit the dance floor at the best nightclub in San Diego, check out the Onyx Room Nightclub. Onyx is a staple of the Gaslamp Quarter nightlife scene, and its clientele makes it a truly great nightclub. With music genres including hip hop, top 40, urban Latin, reggaeton, bachata, salsa, merengue, regional, cumbia, and Banda, we have something to please everyone’s taste. You’ll find that special something that attracts an open-minded, up-for-anything, and, above all, incredibly friendly crowd. Our inviting atmosphere and welcoming staff will ensure you have an experience unlike any other. To learn more about why Onyx Nightclub is the premier San Diego nightclub, call us at 619-876-8044.

How boys dance vs. How girls dance
Hello everyone! Today is a day off and I don’t want to talk about something complicated and serious at all. But to distract from everyday worries, relax and get a positive charge, which is enough for the whole next week, will not hurt.
How boys dance vs. How girls dance
By the way, how do you spend the entrance? At home with your family, outside the city in a country house or a sports base? Maybe go to clubs? Have you noticed how bizarrely some guys and girls dance there?
I used to go to clubs a lot and loved to watch some of the “disco dancers” quirks. And it turns out that not always their unusual movements were dictated by the action of alcohol or other psychoactive substances. As proof, I can cite three videos from YouTube - “How girls dance”, “How guys dance in clubs” and “How guys dance! Parody".
If you have already seen these videos, you can immediately go to the comments ;-). And if not, then I'll tell you everything in order.
How girls dance in a club
This funny video appeared on YouTube on February 5, 2014. Over 1.3 million people watched it in 1.5 months. The video was created and shot by photographer Olga Zhadan.
She demonstrated 27 styles of women's dances that can be seen in clubs, parties, celebrations and corporate events. Shy, Candy, Chikul, Techno seal, Duck, I want an iPhone, Armpit…
Watch the video and find your favorite style. And, of course, share your discoveries in the comments.
Watch the video “How girls dance in a club”
How boys dance! Parody - How boys dance in a club
As you understand, this video was a response to the work of Olga Zhadan. The clip appeared online on March 9, 2014 and gained over 600,000 views in a week. Great claim to win!
Showman Ignat Tagiev starred in the video. He performed 27 types of male dances, among which Male is looking for a female, Caucasian, Drunkard, Drug addict, Tectonic, Cowboy, Killed, Gay.
Watch this incendiary video and classify your dance style or that of your buddies. I promise this will be easy. There is even a type of dance that one of our mutual acquaintances prefers (yes, yes, a common one. Check it out!).
Watch the clip “How the boys dance! Parody – How boys dance in a club”
How boys dance in clubs - How boys dance in clubs
And this is a very fresh clip. At the numerous requests of the workers, it was made by Olga Zhadan, already known to us. She added it to YouTube on March 14, 2014. More than 3 thousand people watched it in a day.
In her new work, Olga demonstrated 29 body movements that sober and not very men do on the dance floor. Watch the video and determine who you are: Jock, Generator, Tambourine, Tsa-tsa, Party Host, Groom, Rattle, Passenger, or maybe a Magician?
In this clip you will also find some of our mutual acquaintances of men (yes, the world is small). By the way, if you know the Ukrainian language, then especially for you Olga wrote all the names of the dances in Ukrainian.
Watch the video “How guys dance in clubs - How boys dance in clubs”
I hope I managed to charge you with positive. And you recognized yourself and your friends in the videos. Or maybe one of you has a unique style of dancing, and Olga and Ignat have a couple to release a new version of the clips? Write in the comments!
I'm also interested to know which video you liked best. Personally, I vote for the video “How the guys dance! Parody". Ignat convinced me more and made me laugh. Write in the comments to the article about your choice.

How to learn to dance in clubs for a guy
Contents
How to move on the dance floor without looking ridiculous and clumsy - this question has probably worried the representatives of the stronger sex ever since the synchronized movements of couples in the waltz went out of fashion or mazurka. For at least a century now, men have had to guess what a profitable disco dance should be like. Unfortunately, even professional choreographers will not answer this question. But we will try to highlight the basic rules.
hop and R'n'B
Rules to follow
Relax
Let's tell you a secret: most guys on the dance floor don't look stupid because they haven't taken lessons in dance studios and can't tell tectonics from r'n'b , but because they do not catch the rhythm of the music and cannot relax. And if no one usually pays attention to the first, then the second immediately catches the eye of others.
Hence the first rule: listen to music and let your body dance freely.
Choose a style
If you are a frequent discotheque visitor, you should choose a certain dance direction in which you will move on the dance floor. Of course, this will depend on the music that the DJ will put on, but for ten years now hip-hop and electronic music have not left the clubs. Therefore, you can master the basic movements of either one or the other. The "electronics" elements are a bit simpler, so it might be worth starting with them. Video tutorials to help you!
Sign up for a trial class
Try to vary your movements
If after watching the videos you still can't feel comfortable on the dance floor, you should consider enrolling in a dance studio. An experienced teacher, a company of like-minded people and regular classes will quickly do their job, and you will finally be able to relax and stop having complexes while dancing. Plus, to the envy of your peers, you will no longer dance like a “newbie”.
Remember that everything is for fun
If you do somersaults on the court for ten minutes with a tense face, and then return to the table sweaty, your friends are unlikely to appreciate it. Understand that dancing is not a competition, but a completely cultural form of recreation. As they say, relax and have fun!
Let it all flow
Let go of your body and emotions, surrender to the music and move without paying attention to those around you. The tension in the dance is the main obstacle. Stop thinking about movements, no one will notice them in the crowd and darkness anyway.
How girls will evaluate movements on the dance floor
Perhaps the results of a study by scientists from Northumbria University will help answer the question of how to learn to dance in clubs for a guy.
