16. Convulsion
Photo via Consequence of SoundLevel: Beginner
This one isn’t so much about self-control. When the music hits you, sometimes you just can’t help it. Did you hear that drop?! Let the energetic beat takeover and dance your excitement out.
15.
Dance WalkLevel: Intermediate
This is somewhat of an involuntary dance. When you’re walking to the restroom or the snack tent, and you’re just boppin’ along, shuffling in strides, you’re dance walking. And you didn’t even know it.
14. Pump It
Photo via TumblrLevel: Intermediate
This one is for everyone as the dance move itself has stood the test of time. (Okay, so it’s stuck around since the 80’s). Either way, raise your arms up and let me see you work. Pump it.
13. Jump Around
Level: Beginner
You don’t need any dance skills for this one considering there are no, well, dance moves involved. Just feel the rhythm and jump. Jump left to right, right to left, front to back, or in a circle. JUMP!
12. Shuffling
Photo via Business InsiderLevel: Expert
First the “T-Step”, then some arm movements, and now the “Running Man,” shuffling has an evolving style adjusted to each dancer’s unique style. As a newb, we suggest you try a YouTube tutorial before breaking out these dance moves.
11. Point and Pop
Level: Beginner
You see it? Go ahead and point at it. Catch that build up? Point to the sky? Hear the drop? Point it down! DJ played your jam? Point to him and let out your gracious recognition. You’re here and you’re directing the show.
10. Neck Bob
Photo via ReactionGIFLevel: Beginner
The head bob is a safe dance move for almost any genre. Whether it’s a progressive drop or a trap banger, just go ahead and bob your head to the beat. You can do no wrong here.
Pickup Line
Level: Intermediate
This one doesn’t so much focus on the music as it does on a potential hookup. There’s not rules on this one either. You’ve spotted a hottie on the dance floor and now it’s time to reel them in — with whatever moves you got.
9. Rave Master
Photo via TumblrLevel: Expert
Few have mastered these moves, and glovers have the advantage. We’re talking the glovers, the hoopers, and the orbiters here. Grab yourself a light-up prop and get moving because mastering the flow and technique of the Rave Master takes time, practice, and experience.
8. Wallflower
Level: Beginner
In the sense of dance moves, this is a beginner move. In the sense of avoiding sweaty crowds, this is an expert move. For some, festivals are more for the music and less for the dancing sweat pits. And that’s okay. Don’t be afraid to stagnantly stand back and enjoy the show.
7. Hair Swing
Photo via TumblrLevel: Beginner
You spent hours on hair and makeup for this festival, and now it’s time to ruin it with some convulsing dance moves. Toss your cares to the wind and swirl your head to the beat, because this is life and we’re all living free.
6. Casino Lineup
Level: Intermediate
Whether it’s the “pull the slot machine” or the “roll the dice,” the Casino Lineup provides you with a plethora of moves. Choose wisely and don’t forget to change it up.
5. Fist Pump
Photo via GiphyLevel: Intermediate
Move over, Jersey Shore. We’re electronic music fans and we’re here to party. Just throw your arm in the air, ball that fist, and get pumping to the beat.
4. Pseudo-Stage
Level: Intermediate
This one’s a fun one for all our imaginative minds in the crowd. Sing the lyrics, pound those drums. Whatever you do, do it like the crowd is watching. After all, this is *your* performance.
3. Sheer Seduction
Photo via ReactionGIFsLevel: Beginner
This is for the ones who really “feel” the music. Throw your arms out, shut your mind off, and do whatever is your body says to do. Throw in some spirit fingers or jazz hands for an extra dramatic effect.
2. Too Cool For This
Level: Beginner
This one takes almost no effort at all, ironically. All you have to do is stop moving, stop watching, stop listening, take out your phone, and look at it. Just do us a favor and move out of our way before attempting this move.
1. Twerk
Photo via TumblrLevel: Expert
Sh-sh-shake it. Unless you’ve been living under a rock the last year, you probably know what twerking is. If you’re a festival, it’s the best time to give it a try. Go ahead. Bend over and show us what you’re working with.

These simple dance moves make use of a “rocking groove type” of motion following the rhythm of the music.

It will be easy to understand what we’re talking about once you read through the article and checkout the video below.

Now, let’s get right to it!
Rule #1: Guys Need To Learn How To Dance
Dancing gives guys an unfair advantage over all the other guys when it comes to the ladies (or any potential partner for that matter). Ladies will not be sitting uncomfortably when they’re out with you and you know how to dance and interact with other people on the dance floor. It shows you’re know how to have fun, and have control over your actions and body. It is a definite win! Dancing is part of social cues and social interactions, and will make a guy seem more romantic, more social and fit. Dancing is a sport at the end of the day, and it helps tone and sculpt your muscles.
A lot of today’s events usually include dancing and not knowing how to dance excludes us automatically from making the most out of them. Who doesn’t want to make the most out of a weekend camping at an event or even a club night in the weekend? The process of learning is easy and methodical. Start by learning a few quick tricks will help you become a better dancer, quickly and easily. Keep reading and we’ll share a lot of those with you.
Rule #2: You Need To Dance Well Enough
Nobody’s asking guys to become the next superstar dancer in no time. You need to be average at best!
The whole point of being able to dance is getting out there and not embarrassing yourself and the people you’re with. It all comes down to knowing enough to feel comfortable moving and dancing with people or by yourself. Learning to dance can help you improve your coordination and the control you have over your own body but also using the tips we’ll share in just a bit will also lead to similar results. You’ll better understand how you need to move your body and coordinate your movements in a way that looks and feels nice. Dancing has a sort of snowball effect, the more you do it, the better you’ll become. Once you’ve mastered these couple of tips and feel comfortable within your own skin while moving your body to music, your self-confidence will grow, both on and off the dance floor.
Rule #3: It’ll Feel Awkward At First
As we’ve just mentioned, dancing and using these tips will become better and easier with time, it’s what is called the “snowball effect”. Even when it feels awkward, we highly recommend jumping into it. You need to get out there and do it! You’ve got to act like you’ve done it before, that you’ve been there. Everything is awkward at first, messy in the middle but beautiful at the end. Any talent you master goes through the same general idea. Don’t be scared, you just need to finish these first few times on a high and you’ll become more confident with practice.
Rule #4: Act Like You’ve Mastered This
A great followup to the third rule, you’ve got to look like you know what you’re doing. Confidence here is the key word. You shouldn’t show that it’s a concern or a big deal that you’re on the dance floor. It’s all about having fun and enjoying your time. Dancing is part of body language, and a confident attitude shows a confident character which everyone is driven by and attracted to. Smile and have a good time even when you’re freaking out on the inside. Keep it calm, cool, confident and sexy. At first, fake it till you make it and it will start happening on it’s own soon.
Everything we’ve discussed so far had to do with attitude and approach. The next rule can make or break all of the work you put in.
Rule #5: Always Be Prepared To Dance
We don’t mean to have a warmup session before hitting the dance floor. Look, dance floors are sweaty, jam packed areas where people of all sizes, ages and backgrounds are active, moving and shaking. It’s hot, you’re moving between each other, things can easily get sweaty and musty throughout the night. So remember, after a while you’re gonna become very very sweaty yourself. So remember to use deodorant or antiperspirant before going out, you’ll be smelling your best all through the night.
In addition to that, dress in layers. This will help you throughout the night as well. If you’re wearing a t-shirt underneath a jacket or hoodie or whatever additional layer, you can just take it off and hit the dance floor. Once the night is over, you’ll have something warm and dry to wear.
Time To Learn Some Dance Moves
There’s no need to feel awkward about dancing or what to do with your hands anymore!
In the below video you’ll learn in detail (and in just a few minutes) the best 3 dance moves you’ll need to get started. Note that this guy mentions house music, but in reality these moves work on many sub genres of electronic dance music. In fact, with the below tutorial, you’ll learn how to dance to a variety of music genres at any club and festival.
Dance music has a tempo and so, the movements are a bit smaller.
In the first dance, the dancer showed a rocking groove type of motion, focusing mainly on the knees and thighs and starting with them slightly bent. Then you want to stand up while pushing back. Your core stays locked and upper body goes forward rocking in motion.
Important to keep note: make sure you’re not slamming your knees back. This will injure your knees which is not what we’re aiming for.
To make it more interesting, we then focus on switching directions. Matching the beat is all there is to it as it helps “make sense” of the movement.
But what to do with the arms? Well bending the elbows and arms to the rhythm is also a great way to create movement variation and interesting body moves. Swaying them in and out of the center of the body is a great ideas. As you have come to understand it’s all about working the different sections of your body together in a certain way to create physical movement that makes sense.
In theory, what the above video teaches is better body coordination, providing you with movement options and examples that work well in difference dancing situations. You can try them out and slowly master them. You’ll even be able to create your own variations, it’s a great way to interact with others on the dance floor and have fun in the moment.
It’s time to stop being the guy who’s standing on the sideline while everyone else is having all the fun! Now you’ve got all the tools you need to kick ass on the dance floor.

Concerts in St. Petersburg. Poster and schedule of performances of artists
Concerts in St. Petersburg. Poster and schedule of performances of artistsMany people cannot imagine their life without music. You can catch an FM wave or turn on your favorite song almost anywhere, it is enough to have Internet access or a saved playlist. It is pleasant to walk, play sports or do household chores to the musical accompaniment, and someone even manages to work efficiently. But it's one thing to listen to music in the player and quite another - a live performance. Classical, jazz and blues, R&B, rock, alternative, original songs - what do you prefer?
It is believed that people in St. Petersburg are especially fond of classics and rock. It would seem that incompatible directions coexist harmoniously in the hearts of the inhabitants of the Northern capital. Petersburg values freedom, including music. The concert poster is replete with announcements of performances by artists of different genres. "Live music" attracts visitors to cafes and restaurants. The level of performance is often worthy of a big stage; at such chamber performances one can hear graduates of the Conservatory or other musical educational institutions.
But if musical evenings in cafes are organized spontaneously, then the poster of concerts in St. Petersburg is formed in advance and is freely available. You can see whose tour will take place in the city in the next week, month, or even year. Do not be surprised, Petersburgers like to go not only to theaters and museums. There will be enough space on the dance floor for everyone, but we advise you to buy tickets to the VIP zone in advance. We will tell you what concerts will be held in St. Petersburg in the near future, so that you can see and hear all the most interesting things that the modern music industry has to offer.
