Basics of Online Dance
In the Gorean world, anyone can dance, at least in the most basic ways, and even so, a girl who writes simply can turn those simple words into a wonderful, alluring dance. It's not particularly difficult if you simply practice the same sort of things that you do when serving paga or food.
There are some very simple things to practice, which will help you develop your skills at writing dance.
Study a fire flame and watch its movements for 5 minutes, then take a pen and paper and describe what you saw, describe each flicker, the way the flame dances. Yes, a fire flame is a wonderful dancer to learn by! It bends and leaps; it stretches and subdues.
Think of your fondest memory of someplace that you love, such as sitting at the ocean and watching the waves, or sitting in a garden. Describe everything about that place that you love.
Study a tree blowing in the wind and watch its movements for 5 minutes, then take a pen and paper and describe what you saw, each bend of the trunk, the sweeping arms of the branches, the soft fluttering of leaves.
Combine the above three steps, the fire flame and the tree dancing in your favorite place. Your body is the flame, your arms stretching, your legs leaping, the trunk of your body folding, yourself stretching, yourself subdued, falling to the ground. Your body is the tree, the branches are your arms sweeping, the leaves are your hands, the trunk is your torso.
Take a day to walk around outside and listen to the various sounds around you. Write out a description of what you heard, the bells ringing in the distance from the church down the street, the chirping of birds playing in the trees, the eerie buzzing of the cicadas, a dog barking. These simple tools will develop your ability to express descriptions.
Get yourself a good thesaurus. For those who cant afford to buy one, there are online dictionaries and thesauruses out there. I highly recommend Miriam-Webster: http://www.m-w.com
You want your dance to flow smoothly and not be too hard on the eyes for reading and enjoyment. If your dance is overly long-winded per post, you'll lose your audience. If your dance has too few posts, it will seem hurried finished before it was started. Too many posts, and you'll have your audience growing bored, if not asleep. Therefore, you should keep your dances a minimum of 3-4 sentences per post, and between 8-13 posts long.
Your posts need to be well-detailed, painting a picture so that your audience can imagine in their mind and see what you are doing. A Gorean slave dance is more than just the words that you write. You are demonstrating to your audience the very essence of yourself, your character, displaying emotions, needs, thoughts, desires, devotion and your slave belly.
Dance is not masturbation set to music. Such dances are anathema to the concept of the Gorean slave dance. Female slaves did not masturbate for the pleasure of men; men masturbated women. The Master is in control of the female slave; masturbation by a female slave takes that control away. A dancer can be and is expected to be passionate but also feminine and exquisitely beautiful. It is not distasteful if you glisten, moisten, glisten, shimmer or sheen, etc., to demonstrate your arousal. However, there is far more to dancing than displaying your sexual hunger; elegance, gracefulness, beauty, sensuality can all be shown in dance without be crude or distasteful.
No superwoman feats please. Make the dance realistic. It is recommended that you actually try out the movements that you write. If they are impossible for you do to, then to describe such a movement could quite well make you appear a clown rather than a dancer.
Although pre-writing of dances is discouraged, we understand that not all slave girls can be exquisite dancers and be able to perform off-the-cuff. When performing your dance, and it is pre-written, allow at least two to three minutes between each post (stopping to read your own post as if you were part of the audience is a good way to accomplish this). You want to allow your audience time to read your post and comment to your movements. Masters quite enjoy ogling and whistling, and this encourages the dancer. Allow them their fun, and you will feel that much more rewarded! For pre-written dances, pre-reading your subsequent post will allow you to make changes, ad-libbing as the result of a comment made by a Master; such can make the dance far more superior and memorable and fun!
Most traditional Gorean dances have a theme and tell a story. Be sure that you establish this theme within the first three posts of your dance so that your audience understands exactly what you are doing. One important thing to keep in mind is that the slave dance is a great emotional outlet; your dance can reflect your current mood express it in your dance!
You might wish to use props of some sort in your dance, such as a chain or a whip. Of course, certain themed dances require such props to be used. If you are dancing off-the-cuff, you should ask the free who commanded the dance if he or she wishes to use a prop of some kind. Don't rip off a Master's belt and assume it's okay. Props can be found in the supply wagon, such as whips and chains; these need no permission to be used. However, a free's personal property must always be respectfully asked for with permission to use it up to and including the free him or her self! Do not assume you can climb into a Master's lap for a lap dance and think such is allowable. Remember, touching a free, or their property, is not allowed unless permission is first granted.
Always check your spelling. There is nothing more displeasing than trying to interpret spelling errors while reading a dance. You do not want frees to comment on "did she flip or fall? no, I think she did a roundhouse kick followed by a knee slide.
Last, and certainly not the least, NEVER copy another person's dance!! Watch them dance, learn from them, let them inspire you, but do not cheat them or yourself by passing off another girl's hard work as your own!
