10 Types of Dancers You Will See Uptown

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Towson chapter.

At this point in your life, your weekends (or weekdays) probably consist of all things vodka-cranberry, too-tight black dresses, and hitting uptown with your group of girls. There are many places you can end up when you decide to go uptown, but no matter where you go, there are certain types of dancers you are bound to see. Read on to see how we’ve classified the various types of dancers you’re likely to encounter when you hit the bars.

 

1. The girl that actually knows how to shake her thang and is making everyone else look bad.

 

2. The person that’s joking around at first, but damn, they got moves

 

3. The couple that’s having sex on the dance floor.

 

4. The clumsy drunk who can be found swaying back and forth (with a high risk of intermittent tripping) and holding a drink in their hand.

 

5. The guy who is roaming around trying to find someone to grind with.

 

6. The awkward dancer that knows they can’t dance but for the sake of their friends, makes somewhat of an attempt.

 

7. The aggressive song requester dancing to her “jam”

 

8. The lesbians (but not really) dancers

 

9. The head-bopper/fist-pumper who can be found on the outskirts of the dance floor.

 

10. The group of girls that are dramatically singing to Katy Perry  in unison.
