Also how to dance. Like, I can't even do a casual bob, I have no idea what I'm doing and it feels weird as gently caress

People who know how to dance will tell you to just let go and do it naturally.

People who know how to dance are unaware this is not possible if you don't know to dance.

I'm sure us non-dance knowers could learn to dance by actually getting dance lessons or something and just learning how though.

i love dancing but i dont think of it as a "skill" and certainly not an "adult skill" because ive been doing it since i waslike 5 years old and havent really changed much about how i do it, and it still works

but im just strictly talking about moving my body to music for fun, not the formal art form. but when someone says "hey lets go out dancing" they usually just mean the former and its all good. the main actual skill involved is temporarily letting go of caring how others perceive you

I mean you gotta let go yes but it's also probably a factor that you've been doing it since you were 5. It's a skill you've learned through practice, like all skills.
