Hey there, everyone!!
I've been wanting to take part in some competitive dance fun lately in preparation for anthrocon and just because dancing is awesome!
So my friend and I are gonna put together a little dance jam/floor wars session at the next Texas Furocity furmeet! The full address will be posted later on and info can be found under #texasfurocity on Instagram!
Everyone's invited!
Bring friends!
And no, you do not have to have a suit to participate! You can be experienced, inexperience, or even a first-time dancer!
There isn't a prize or anything that can be offered (unless someone offers a prize), and it's all for fun anyway!
Several people will be assigned as judges, and dancers will give one another constructive criticism in order to learn and get even better at dancing than before!

Please note that I am in no way professional--I've taken part in one dance competition and that's it. I'd just like to help people with stage fright get used to the feeling of a dance floor so they feel more comfortable, and I'd love to give people who've never danced before the chance to try it!

How it works:
-two dancers will "face off" in a dance battle lasting two rounds, 30 seconds each
-one dancer will be eliminated each round
-each dancer will offer critiques to the other on what they thought was good and what they think could be improved, and the judges will offer their share
-the eliminated dancer will sit off until another person is eliminated, and then they'll dance off with that person
-this will continue until two people are left from each category--"dead" and "alive!"
-after the final round is complete, a "dead" winner and a "living" winner will be announced!
-after the whole dance off, music will be played to allow free styling
***Please bring an iPod of some sort that I can hook up to my speaker, as we will alternate whose music is playing as we dance off!
