Dance styles?
Well, I -really- need a way to get some exercise (which is impossible at home indoors because I'll disturb my downstairs neighbours, and outside because the neighbourhood kids are jerks who gang up on people just going for a run), and my parents won't pay for... well, anything but a stereotypical "girl" activity, really, so I've been considering taking dance lessons, but the one ballet lesson I took... was bad. What are the other main styles of dance (that would be easy to find lessons for...) , especially the more fast-paced ones?

Jazz Dancing... It's like Ballet, but with modern music and a few minor differences...

Or look to take ballroom dance lessons.. Learn the Mambo, and swing, and lindy hop, and samba, and rhumba, and Salsa, and Waltz, and, er... thats all I can think of...

ballroom dancing all the way....it sounds like an old person activity but it is so much FUN!!!!

In a drama class I took we had to do ballroom dancing as a prereq to sword fighting and it was awesome...I'm hooked. and it also is cool cause when you go to weddings you can dance circles round everyone else.

I love Latin American dancing!! Salsa, merengue, etc. are great. All you have to do is find a partner first! Lots of fun and a great workout, too!
