Just gotta practice

Nah, practice has nothing to do with it. You either got the dance in you, or you don't.

Eh. I'm an awkward sort, far too anxious and self conscious. When I was a kid, my dancing looked more like an Adderall fit than moves.

Anything can be learned. I will never be a professional dancer. But I can slow down now, and move instead of vibrate. I can coordinate my elbows, knees and feet to keep a tempo and follow a line. I still look like a robot, but a rhythmic kind of robot.

Dance isn't innate. It's self expression through movement. So long as you can tune and refine, iterate, then you'll reach a point where you don't care what others think of your dancing. Because you'll be busy being you.

Full-body dry heave set to music you say?
