    Re: How do you choose a venue/freestyle

    A clean floor is a must for me.

    I will avoid a venue I enjoy if the floor is sticky because I know I won't be able to slip inside the music if my dancing is wooden.

    When the floor is sticky you have to lift your feet up a lot and can't slide the feet on the floor without risking injury. Also I won't be able to spin on it.

    A tinny, fuzzy sound system also can put me off as likewise I won't get in the music, but the sticky floor is the most off-putting, especially if talc is not put down or disallowed.

    Yeah, just so you can be really "dirty" on it

    Don't look at me, it's Tango that's known as the horizontal dance. It's never quite got rid of it's shady reputation.

    I enjoyed being able to slide my feet around at the Bedford Corn Exchange Friday.

    Ceroc Central (S) has dropped lessons from freestyles. I got there early, determined to get the dancing going ASAP. To my joy I was able to get it started ten minutes before official start time.

    How do you all feel about lesson/no lesson for yourselves?

    When I first starting travelling to unfamiliar freestyles, I thought a quick "icebreaker" lesson was a really good thing. Now I prefer it if there's just freestyle.
    Love dance, will travel

    Cool Re: How do you choose a venue/freestyle

    1. Does it clash with work
    2. Who's DJing
    3. How far is it
    4. What time does it finish
    5. Cost 'n stuff like that......

    That's pretty much the order of things for me
