Dancing
Sims dancing in a club
- Not to be confused with Music and Dance or Dance.
Dancing is an activity that a Sim can do alone or with a partner. Dancing is also a secret skill in The Sims 2 and The Sims 3 and a full skill in The Sims 4: Get Together.
Dancing with a partner builds skill in dancing. Although the player can't see what level the Sim is at, they may be able to tell by the moves the Sim does. For example, Sims with low dancing skill will occasionally step on the partner's toe, while Sims with high dancing skill will rarely do this.
With The Sims 2: University, teens who reach level 8 the dance skill can receive a scholarship, the Tsang Footwork Award. However, since the dance skill isn't visible it's rather hard to get, the only way to get it is to make a Sim practice dancing until the "Bust A Move" option becomes available on other Sim.
In the The Sims 2: FreeTime dancing increases enthusiasm in the Music and Dance hobby.
There are several ways a Sim can engage in this interaction:
- Choose "Dance. . . <dance>" on an Audio object.
- Click on the selected Sim and choose "Dance . . .<dance>"
- Click on a Sim and choose "Dance Together", "Let's do the Smustle", "Entertain . . . Bust a Move", "Slow Dance" or "Dance. . . <dance>"
- When a Sim nearby is dancing the Smustle, the player can click on them and the option "Join Smustle" should appear.

A hidden Club Dancing skill is added in Late Night. It is acquired by dancing at a community lot for a period of time (roughly 3-4 in-game hours). The community lot in question must be designated as a club. Sims will automatically club dance inside clubs, but they can choose as an optional dancing type inside their home, along with the other options. Sims cannot perform club dancing while inside a community lot that isn't a club, or inside another Sim's house.
The Sims 4: Jungle Adventure introduces the Rumbasim dance, which can be unlocked by having Sims reach level 4 in the Selvadoradian culture skill.
Dance contests[]
Dance Contests were added in The Sims 2: FreeTime. A Sim can enter a dance contest by clicking on the DJ booth, and the winner will be rewarded money. In The Sims 2: Bon Voyage and The Sims 2: Apartment Life, a Sim can challenge another to Fire Dance or Break Dance, if both Sims have learned the dances.
The Sims 3 Store[]
The Sims 3 Store introduced a visible dancing skill, it's coming with Stiff as a Board, Light as a Feather Dance Collection. Sims can learn and increase Dancing skill by using Light as a Feather Ballet Barre and Stiff as a Board Dance Floor. Having this skill in the skill journal allows the player to see their progress in the secret dancing skills: dancing, club dancing[TS3:LN], and childhood ballet[TS3:G].

The Dance Skill in The Sims 4
If you’re an experienced simmer and have played the previous Sims titles, then you know that the dancing skill brings many different types of dances. Among the regular dancing, while alone or with other Sims, you could also have Dance Battles. The Dance Battles are entertaining scenarios where you battle another Sim (or multiple Sims) as if you were in a dancing movie. You can’t lose a dancing duel in The Sims 4, so definitely give it a try.
The next thing you want to check out is the Show Off Moves interaction. This is a hilarious one since your Sim will become the center of attention, letting everyone witness their dancing talent. It only works on a dance floor, though, so keep that in mind.
Speaking of which, you could also possess a Portable Dance Floor. This is a reward you get at level 3 and lets you have a dance party wherever you want!
Now let’s check all the levels of the dance skill in The Sims 4!
Do you want to know how to increase your cooking skills? Check this guide!
Dancing Skill Levels
These are the 5 levels of the dance skill in The Sims 4!
- Level 1: Practice Dancing on your own.
- Level 2: Perform the Pump Pop Dance or talk to other Sims about Dancing.
- Level 3: Receive the Portable Dance Floor and show off the Jimmy Leg dancing move.
- Level 4: Receive new dancing staps and show off the Light spin dancing move.
- Level 5: Receive dancing Retro Sneakers and perform the Backflip dancing move.
Leveling Up
As you can see from the list above, the dance skill in The Sims 4 is pretty simple. And there are indeed no well-guarded secrets when it comes to leveling up. The biggest advice that we could give you is to follow its progression path and perform all your interactions. Each time you unlock a new move, for example, you’ll want to execute it either alone or in front of everyone.
If you want to increase this skill slightly faster than average, then aim for the Confident mood. This emotion will give you the highest success rate to your Sim when dancing, so it’s always good to have it on. Other than that, you’ll want to start with practicing moves and dancing in front of the mirror. This is because it’s the fastest way to build up some skill, and it doesn’t take any additional effort.
Do you know that you can manually set the level of any skill? Learn how to do it now!
Conclusion
Among the minor skills in The Sims 4, the dance one is perhaps the most fun one. If you like dancing in general, then you’re going to love the leveling up and also laugh at every silly thing your Sim will do on your screen. We personally regard the dance skill as one of the must-try skills in The Sims 4, and we recommend it to every player! Visit this page to find a list of all skills in The Sims 4.

How to Improve The Sims 4 Dancing Skill
No literature can teach you how to hear the beat and feel the music, so get off the couch, get off the computer , turn on your favorite song louder and start shaking the fat. Although here it is better to say stick to the monitors, launch your favorite The Sims 4 and get up from the sofas to shake your Sims with rolls. They can hone their dance moves by dancing to the music of any stereo systems, DJ consoles, or by practicing in front of a mirror in which they can fit in full growth. Interestingly, there is only one such mirror, and it came out along with the add-on. It is not known whether this is a flaw or a special idea, but you can’t dance in front of other large mirrors.
Dancing skill development
Dancing in front of a mirror
Dancing skill leveling will take a long time, don't worry. It has only five levels. One good disco all night long and you will be the king of the dance floor. There are also a couple of ways to improve the skill faster:
- New Trait "Dance Machine"
- Dancing in a confident mood
- Performing group dances
- Improve skill during club meetings
However, it is worth remembering that no matter what skills and traits the Sims have, no matter how hard the players try to protect them from all sorts of mistakes, incidents happen even among professionals. It's a shame that sometimes they spoil beautiful dances, but they look funny.
bad character dances
Now is the time to go through all the levels in detail and see what features are available to the Sims.
Dance skill levels
First level
As you know, in the fourth part of the Sims line, the characters get the first level of the skill, once having tested it. Once on the dance floor, Sims get a couple of new moves in their arsenal, and these are not those caricatured dances from the base game. New movements give a little club style. Also, the characters learn a simple dance "Under the Hand", which is perfect for stylish chicks dancing in miniskirts and stilettos.
Arm Dance
Second level
Sims can talk about dance skills when they have acquired any skills. Discussions are good, but becoming a star of the dance floor does not contribute much. You won’t surprise people with club dance alone, so why not add Pop Dance to your list?
Dance Pop Dance
Third Level
The more practice, the more different dances Sims master. Now in their arsenal appeared "Lame". Don't make false assumptions because of a funny name. The dance is not designed for the disabled and pensioners. In fact, he looks very cool and incendiary.
Chump Dance
In addition, a portable dance floor appears in the Sim's luggage, thanks to which you can rock in absolutely any place. The main thing - do not forget to take any portable stereo system with you, otherwise the performance will be covered with a copper basin. Although it is curious that group dances can be performed without music.
The Sims 4 Party Dances Get Together
Upon reaching the third level, the Sims unlock the ability to dance around the campfire with fire. It looks the same as dancing with light, available in the next level. The only difference is that instead of light sticks, Sims spin torches.
dancing with fire by the fire
Be very careful when performing this trick! If the character hits the back of his head with a light stick by accident and hits a bump at most, then here it will light up. No kidding! Of course, such a small flame is not fatal, but a moodlet that gives +1 to discomfort is provided. Therefore, do not rush to dance with fire, you can also perform ordinary dances around the fire.
fire burns
Level 4
When they reach level 4, Sims learn new dance moves. You can see them as an element of some group dances or when the character alone moves freely on the dance floor. Those who are not far from the topic of dancing in real life can easily name what styles Sims use. Personally, I recognized wave, electro-dance and popping in their movements.
Various dance steps
But that's not all. Now the characters can perform a spectacular dance with glow sticks.
Glow Stick Dance
Level Five
Once Sims have mastered the dance skill, they can perform a back flip as part of their dance routine. If during this action they manage not to kiss the dance floor, the audience will be delighted, believe me!
Somersault in dance
You ask, is this all? Not! Rather, take a look at the Sim's wardrobe. For all the hard work, ups and downs, brand new retro sneakers will be the reward. Look how amazing they are! Only one problem - now the excuse that shoes interfere with a bad dancer is not for your Sims.

Dance battles
Do you think you can move well enough to the music and have no equal? Well, why not test it empirically? Calling another Sim to the so-called battle is another skill token. If you wish, you can "throw down the gauntlet" even at the lowest levels of the skill, but this is not recommended. Sims don't have much movement left, so don't expect spectacular fights. Even more - two sims showing each other the Hand in Hand dance looks extremely comical. But the kings of the dance floor will unleash a real battle. Unfortunately, the winner is always unknown, because no pop-ups about the result of the battle or the corresponding moodlets appear.
Sim Dance Duel
Group Dance
You can dance not only alone, but also with friends. So why not create your own dance team? You can form a team in the communication menu in the “Group actions” section. It is advisable to select Sims with the same skill level, as more experienced dancers will not be able to perform dances due to the presence of Sims who are lagging behind in skill in the group. There are 5 dances in total:
- One step, two steps. ..
- Boogie Woogie
- Breakdance
- Spinning Top
- Lean Back
True, the disadvantage of automatic construction is that you cannot determine the position of each participant. You can only set the position of the leader. The group will be led by the character to whom you gave the command to perform a joint dance.
Dance teams can consist of two to eight characters. Depending on the number, the construction figures will differ.
Two dancers . Stand in one line, the leader will be located on the left.
2 dancers on the dance floor
2 dancers on the dance floor
Three dancers . They stand in a triangle, the leader becomes in the center, going a little closer ahead of the rest.
3 dancers on the dance floor
3 dancers on the dance floor
Four dancers . Become a rhombus; the leader, as always, is ahead of everyone.
4 dancers on the dance floor

Five dancers . When viewed from above, the arrangement of the dancers resembles the image of the number "five" on a dice. The leader becomes in the center.

Six dancers . They are located in a pyramid, the leader in every sense stands at the top.

Music is an integral part of everyone's life. And where there is music, there is a place for dancing. It's so hard to sit still when the beat is pumping. Good compositions in The Sims 4 were also found in the base game, but there was a frank trouble with dancing. The second addition to The Sims 4 Get Together corrected such an unfortunate omission. In this overview, we'll take a look at all the new features that have appeared in the Sims' dance arsenal.

For group dances, the Sims line up on the dance floor themselves, so you don't have to worry about them getting up randomly. True, the disadvantage of automatic construction is that you cannot determine the position of each participant. You can only set the position of the leader.
