Doncaster Linedancing

NEVER		ALWAYS
	Never carry food, drinks, glasses, or lighted cigarettes onto the dancefloor.		Always listen to the DJ. It is customary for a DJ to designate the dance and to 'count' you in.
	Never walk through a line of dancers to cross the floor - always walk around or wait.		Always encourage and support beginners. It only take a few kind words to make new friends!.
	Never stand on the floor to talk - if music is playing, go off the dance floor to chat.		Always go to the front when starting off a dance. Others can then line up behind you.
	Never start a different dance unless there is plenty of room and you sense it is acceptable		Always leave the dance floor after you have finished the dance and you are talking to a friend, as other may need the floor space if you don't!.
	Never hog the dance floor to 'perform'. If the floor is full, take small steps and watch for collisions.		Always be gracious and apologise when caught in a 'bump' even if it is not your fault.
	Never, even if you know the dance being taught and the person next to you is struggling, talk over the instructor. It is confusing to the learner and irritating to those around you, not to mention the instructor. There should be only one personteaching a specific dance at any one time.		Always replace any drinks that you may have knocked over and remember to say sorry!
	Never let your feet, knees, arms or elbows become dangerous weapons on the dance floor.		Always give way to dancers around the edge of the floor
	Never show off. Crazed variations, turbo spins. high kicks etc put people off - you!		Always dance with the flow. The line of dance is anti - clockwise.
	Never, if you bring a child with you, should you let them run around the dance floor area - it is both irritating and dangerous.		Always keep noise levels down when instruction / announcements are taking place.
			Always show appreciation. Applaud live acts, instructors and DJ's - they work hard for your enjoyment.
			And Finally, keep your head up, keep smiling and enjoy yourselves.
