Let's dance?

People are so excited about Morgan Park's bio and all the mentions of university and scholarship.
How about Zoe Flores and dancing?
I'd love to see dancing skill expanded to a professional level, as in more of those "forms and techniques", a way to earn money, actual dance classes.

Do you think Zoe's bio is hinting at smth as well?
  • Some different types of dancing would be great. I'd like slow dancing back, or some kind of ballroom dancing, to go with my Victorian themed game. I downloaded and edited a ballroom and the sims look pretty funny doing modern dancing!

    I just wish they can do at least the bare minimum and have the sims dancing "WITH" each other. I had hopes for other types of dancing but it has dwindled to a plea for the dancing together to actually have sims facing each other and a slow dance.
  • I would love to see the ballet barre brought back, and I would also love to see couple dances.

    It'd be nice if they could also include a bit of post modern jukebox style music for your sims to dance to

    Medieval dance is quite different to the dances done at classical music balls with poofy gowns.

    Medieval dance tends to be quite hoppy, and not quite what most people imagine it to be.

    Balls with big poofy gowns are usually associated with the waltz, which came in the early 1800's, but didn't gain huge popularity instantly. It changed the dance style from being in a group, or side by side with your partner, to facing each other in an intimate embrace. How scandalous!

    Between the the middle ages and the late 1800's, the English Country dances were what was danced in England, America, and Australia.
    Less hoppy than the medieval dances, but not as intimate as the Waltz. Technically they're a renaissance style of dance, but not what most of the nobles were doing.

    The nobles were too busy dancing some rather ridiculous styles of dance.

    I used to be a part of a medieval/renaissance dance troupe, that also dabbled in a bit of English county dance.

  • Ok I'd love to see ballet and all that, but if it wouldn't be way too much to hope... Lindy hop! <3
