    How many times can you do it in a week? :)

    Well, i attend dancing now about once a week if im lucky. Up until recently i was a regular 3/4 times a week dancer. I get the urges but can not find venues i want to go to generally. I tend to only do freestyles. Hopefully this will pass and i will step up my dancing over the course of a week.

    What about you guys, HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU DO IT IN A WEEK.

    Well as i work shifts i can only dance every other week but i would say i generally manage about 2nights a week tho in theory i could probably manage 4-5 dependant on freestyles.

    M :-)

    Alternatively is any chance i get an option ;-)

    At one point was dancing 9 times a week.

    classes mon-fri. Freestyle Sat night.

    Also had a dance studio booked on sat and Sunday afternoons which anyone could turn up, pay a contribution towards, bring own CD's and Use. Then I was Teaching on Sunday Eve.

    Funny enough I was less tired then.

    Practising for comps at mo so it's almost everynight of the week.

    Varies hugely - average is one class a week, sometimes two and hopefully a freestyle at the weekend, but not every weekend. However, not having danced for two weeks due to being unwell, I went last night, and will be dancing 6 times in the coming week (counting the two workshops on Saturday as one session each). Haven't done that much for ages though.

    I'd like to do 2-3 times a week, but I just don't have the time. And I hate to tell you this - but there's other things out there to do too!

    At one point, I managed 26 nights on the trot.. Then needed a day to have a break! I now roughly do 3-5 nights a week depending.

    I think a weekender was what finished me off, might have been southport... Can't remember. It was fun and would do it again if I get the chance!

    I think Trampy holds the all-time record for this - it was something ridiculous like 150 nights in a row...

    I've toyed with the idea of doing a sponsored 'danceathon' at a weekender. How many songs in a row / Hours danced etc

    It was a weekender that done me in too. Jive tiome at Camber.

    Seriously Addicted from the forum was at camber and came to demo for me Sun eve. I was asleep on crash mats in the hall when she got there. I done the class and then went to camber and danced till monday morning.

    I do it about twice a week.

    Nowadays I go for quality over quantity and of late, i've also been quite experimental and tried a number of different things .... last night I even tried a group session

    I'm lucky if I get it once a fortnight these days.

    I do find that the experience is more intense though, if you do it less often.

    Re: How many times can you do it in a week? :)

    I used to dance
    Mon---Letchworth

    Tue---StNeots

    Wed---Stevenage

    Thur---Kempston occasionally


    Fri---freestyle

    Sat--Freestyle

    Sunday----Sarah Whites StNeots



    Now me and the Trouble only do freestyles and Sarah Whites and in 2 years of dancing i now know less moves than i did after dancing 6 months.

    However i am a lot smoother.

    1 or 2 freestyles per week. But the quality isn't satisfying me anymore either, so i'm going to try rationing to see if it enhances the experience.
