Firstly this is a guide for people like me who are clueless at pulling on the dancefloor, so any naturals/ pulling masters out there bare in mind this is just the BASICS and your naturalness probably makes you better than the basic model i've laid out. Btw kino=kinosthetics = bodily contact/ touching. A lot of the things I mentioned are natural for people that have the confidence to do it, this guide helps people that don't have this confidence because it gives them a structure to work with to prevent them phasing out.
I was talking to a bloke about the best way to do this and was told a few things and realised they were very much true to what I was doing wrong, so thought i'd share; feel free to disagree:
1) Go in for kino as soon as you get eye contact/ if they back into you or you think you receive any sort of signal and if you don't get eye contact go in anyway. When going in for kino it's best to do it facing away from them (ie completely away) and backing into them and doing ass kino as it seems accidental so is easier for the girl to respond without drama. You can also use your hands to hold their sides while doing this if you feel you need to make your approach more aggressive (depends on the girl). You can also approach facing them etc, a good way to do that is to twirl them in front of you and perhaps hold their hands then move onto hold their waist or whatever while close dancing.
2) When not dancing with a girl dance with your wingman (aka friend), if you do this in a similar way to how you'd dance with a girl it makes girls notice and perhaps give them a laugh so they may like you for it. I was doing this wrong cos i'd just dance near my friend without doing anything like that to show off, you may notice girls dance seductively with their friends all the time to show off as a means of attracting guys to them that they want to dance with.
3) Use the 3 second rule for approaching, I originally thought it was just for chat approaches but seems it's for dancing too. Guys who dance near/ next to a girl without approaching are chumps as I've been doing this all the time but now I realise it's wrong and hardly ever works. For example tonights experience for me had me noticing 10 girls who probably wanted to dance with me but me dancing near them and not kinoing them there and then made them move off eventually. The 3 second rule isn't scientific fact but it does help if your like me and lose the confidence to approach quickly.
4) DO approach a girl who is dancing with her friend (especially if it's seductive dancing/kinoing with her female friend). I used to think this was a big no no but now I've been informed you should definitely go for it.
5) This is something I already knew and is pretty common sense but I thought i'd add it anyway, the last 20 minutes of club opening time is when you get lots of girls pouring on the dancefloor to try and dance with a bloke and the girls already on the dancefloor are more accepting to approaches. Be careful though as when this happens a lot of other guys who know about this stuff move in and that happened to me tonight so they all moved in before I got the balls to.
6) Advanced: Use a "pivot" (female friend) to close dance with on the dancefloor, this makes you look more attractive to the girls around you especially if shes hot. This is known as validation.
Numbers 1-3 are things I didn't realise till tonight, number 4 is something I realised a few weeks ago from experience. Number 5 is just common sense and I think everyone knows that.
Sorry this posts a bit long winded but hopefully it will help some guys who were as clueless as me about how to dance with girls on the dancefloor, also remember dance skill isn't as important as you think (confidence and body language is what is important!).
I'll probably get flamed by all the naturals and laughed at for making a guide on this but I don't mind, I don't see OcUK forums as a popularity contest lol.
I'm by no means a natural so if you think you are then please feel free to tell me what to edit/ add as neccesary. I'd be willing to bet that people who do find this post useful won't say so simply because they don't want to admit they need the knowledge. So I am expecting most of the replies to be negative Some girls on this forum will probably deny the rationale here because they like to believe they have the control over which guys approach.
