About


I love to cut a rug, but everyone tells me I look like Elaine Benes when I dance. I'm just trying to get my groove on here, people! And that's where Treva Bedinghaus, the About.com Dance Expert, comes in. Treva has tips and tricks to turn any two-left-footer into the Dancing Queen (or King!).

Stretch It Out
Unless you're Gumby, you'll want to stretch those gams before gettin' jiggy with it. Not only does stretching improve your flexibility, but it can prevent injuries if you hit the dance floor a little too hard.
