is there a difference in dancing style or more importantly dancing ability?
Just curious about it, I'm just starting with investigating it.
What can you guys tell me about it. Anyone noticed something etc.

Ewe lemme try. Si folks always seem to be great dancers (can sense the rhythm and learn steps easily, though it can look a bit impersonal and mechanical). Se types are more spectacular, lots of spontaneity and more sexually charged kind of dancing. Te knows and applies the rules and steps really well. Fi/Fe adapts more to partner's rhythm than leads.
ability? no, i've seen good dancers of most types. style will differ in correlation to how a person processes space/time etc. which is influenced by their IM (socionics type)
we've had a thread dedicated to IJ 'dancing techniques' before: http://www.the16types.info/vbulletin...que-Exposition
In Black Swan there was this one scene where Natalie Portman was warming up with some woman by flapping their arms starting at their shoulder blades and pulsing waves across the entire length to the fingertips like a bird flapping its wings. The first time I saw this I was so fascinated by the transformation of kinetic energy across the body in such a fluid way that I tried to replicate it and couldn't stop. So now my "dancing" consists of creating waves across my body and having different energy pulsations colliding and bouncing off each other in a sort of random chaos chamber, like waves in a pool cresting and troughing at will.
This does not mean I am good at dancing by any stretch though.
I would be interested in finding out if there is some sort of difference. I'm an Ni lead and I'm literally all over the place.
I like to dance, a lot. I dance around my house. It is one of the few physical activities I can lose myself in and not care what people think. Whether I am good at it or not is probably subjective to the viewer.
I really appreciate tribal fusion but I am not that good at it. I prefer slower movements. Rachel Brice is pretty mesmerizing when she gets into it. I don't know her socionics type though.

Me too. I dance from room to room. I guess it comes from being a dynamic type, I can't bear to cross a threshold into a room without a flourish.Originally Posted by Aylen
if you don't dance like this, you ain't a real lotus eater!
THAT'S what I've been missing out on all my life!

heh, I'm not sexy like that but I can whip my hair around.
Edit: Maybe I am just a lotus-nibbler.
