Watching people dance is probably one of the funniest things you can do. After attending a recent party and witnessing the glory of spontaneous dancing I think I've come up with solid categories that most people's dancing styles fit into:

The Self conscious weight transfer guy: This person probably hasn't been drinking. They are well aware of their surroundings, and that people may be watching them dance. They opt to simply transfer their wight from left to right foot and back again. Surprising how this dance can be used in every genera of dance.

The Head wobbler (see also closed eyed groover): Often one of the more intoxicated persons, the head wobbler often has chosen to simply lean against a supportive object (ie. wall, person), close their eyes, and sway their head back and forth. It is common for the head wobbler to inject spontaneous "woots" and a sporadic fist pumps into their dancing.

The Air guitarist (see also lead singer): fairly self explanatory. surprisingly easily transfers into slower genres of music by becoming "the violinist".

The slut: Two words: all hips. Often a closed eye, and raised eyebrow accompanies lip licking in this bar hoping wonder. extra points goes to those who can integrate hair flipping in any way.

The Jumper: The most dangerous of dancers, this beast will continue jumping no matter who or what is in their way. Most suitable for upbeat dancing, the jumper will most likely focus on the jumping itself and air fist pumping. When the slow songs come on, "the jumper" can quickly transform into "the head wobbler"

Closed eye groover: Unlike "the slut" these closed eyes are boarder with relaxed brows and seemingly docile expressions. Often spotted in a crouched bopping position and octupuss like arm movements the "groover" surprisingly hardly ever runs into things.

The lead singer: Very often seen with "the air guitarist", "the lead singer" has acquired an invisible microphone and is belting every word in it. Some how this person knows the words to almost every song, and if they don't they will "fool" you into thinking they do with low groans, and repeating the words a half second after the song does.

The Elaine: All thumbs and little kicks should come to mind when witnessing this warlock. The Elaine can be combo-ed with a number of other styles including "the jumper"

The Trained Dance (see also the choreographer): This person has been taking dance lesson their whole life. Although the lessons has been jazz and ballet and are not accompanied by the music being played, this dancer believes that their training makes them a much better dancer then any other. given the right sampling of tunes the "trained dancer" may become a hybrid referred to as "the choreographed slut"

The Choreographer: This dancer is waiting for a few key music selections where they can show their skills acquired from watching the same music video over and over again on you tube. The ideal situation for "the choreographer" would be to hear that special BSB/NSYNC song and be surrounded in a circle by their clapping peers. When one of those songs is not playing this dancer can often transform into "the slut" simply because of their longing to be in a music video.
