| When doing any new activity or embarking on a new | | | | knows that there's a learning curve and you won't |
| journey it's always nice to see people we can relate | | | | look good straight away. You have to look bad |

| men are always more keen to go to dance classes if | | | | The fact that there are other women in the class |
| they know they won't be the only male in the room. | | | | should not be seen as a bad thing. You'll often find |
| Sadly I've never heard of a mens-only dance class | | | | that they're not necessarily better at dance classes |
| and even if they do exist they would be the | | | | than the men, the men may even be better in some |
| exception rather than the rule. I have seen a few | | | | cases. |
| dance classes for girls-only but these are very | | | | At the end of the day, dance is cross-gender and |
| sensual classes which explore femininity through | | | | something we're all free to explore and enjoy. If |
| movement. I doubt there are any such classes for | | | | you're a man you'll almost certainly find that there'll |
| men! | | | | be other men in the class if the dance class is bigger |
| Which means that if you're a man, you'll have to go | | | | than about 10 people. Even if you're the only male |
| to dance classes with women in it as well as another | | | | that shouldn't matter, if you want to learn it you |

| private dance classes where you can learn 1 to 1 | | | | Dancing is something a lot of people are |

| So if you can't dance and you're a man is it really any | | | | people in the class will be far more worried about |
| more embarrassing having other females see it as | | | | how they are looking than to be too concerned |
| well as men? Well no not really, if anything women | | | | about what you're doing. |
| respect a man that tries. | | | | So go on and take the leap, find a class that you |
| Even if you're useless at dancing, by going to dance | | | | think you'll enjoy and then walk in. If there's other |
| classes you show that you're trying to do something | | | | men then great, if not then you can be the man to |
