I know a male dancer who loves to drop his partners within 2 inches of the floor even in a very crowded venue. Whilst he is careful enough to select the girls who agree and are able to perform a drop to almost horizontal level, the risks of another dancer stepping back at the wrong time is constantly there. My feet have been gouged a couple of times by girls wearing pointed heels and a person's head just above floor level is just too risky.
I must admit that I have not done anything to stop it. Come to think of it, what would be the first port of call? the guy himself or the venue manager? You keep wondering whether the girls mind as most of them are experienced dancers and know their way around the floor.
Whilst on this subject. What are the venue managers' opinion on very pointed stillettoes on the dance floor? Many beginners will wear unsuitable footwear including flip flops and it is rare these days for the teachers to comment on the unsuitability of footwear. Flip flips cause no damage, but stillettoes often do to people and no doubt to the dancefloor.
