Nobody puts Dance Stationers in the corner

This is true all year round but becomes particularly important at Christmas when there are numerous social gatherings to attend. 

I don't know what it is, maybe it's the mulled wine or the sugar from advent calendars, but these parties have such high expectations attached to them even Victoria Beckham's heels would look short. This wouldn't be a bad thing, except in 99% of cases (the 1% exception being Dance Station's own christmas party) they are more akin to cringey primary school discos with awful music, worse outfits and even worse food (are soggy sausage rolls and flat coke seriously supposed to be appetising?!?!?!). Thus when you arrive, you can find yourself developing a nervous twitch where you look at your watch every five minutes and a tourettes-like tick: WHENCANWELEAVE. Yet there is an alternative - own the floor. 

Whilst only a few of us might be up to owning the room, or indeed the whole borough, we should all be able to walk in to a room, strut onto the dance floor and throw out that old adage 'dance like nobody's watching' because that's really boring -  it should be 'dance like everybody's watching and loving it!' Thus this is what we werked on in waacking on Thursday. 

We got into the flow by practising 'coming out' onto the dance floor with a few fierce step-combinations provided by @MlleGinger and then focused on accessorising these with a few simple but effective arm movements - resulting in the same level of effect as wearing your favourite LBD with killer shoes. 

The problem is that this strategy was a little too effective. When we're all separated at various work and family parties this will be fine but when we're all together I think the scene might be something worthy of being on animal planet.
