So You Think You Can Dance?

[Puck Norris]

My upcoming APG centaur needs to take dance for some definitely-not-powergaming I'm doing.

The problem?

How do I dance this horse?

And don't send me videos of horses doing that stupid shuffling thing from YouTube.

[FrodoOf9Fingers]

Perhaps focus on arm motions. Are you going to be male or female? Different sexes seem to have different types of dancing.

[Umbral Reaver]

Tapdancing?

[FallofCamelot]

Dressage is how horses dance but I assume that's the "stupid shuffling thing" that you referred to.

[SwiftyKun]

When it comes to centaurs, it's centered on everything they do anyways. All upper body stuff. Arm movements, head tilts, anything that has to do with the hands moving over the face, take your pick. Disco is a safe bet.

[Puck Norris]

LOL neither female nor into Disco.

Ubral: That's a thought I had too, Riverdance maybe.

Other ideas?

[Thanis Kartaleon]

I'm pretty sure I've seen animated horses dance with their legs like humans do in some Disney-esque movie. So I guess it depends on how realistic you want your horse-man in fantasy land to dance.

[Rynjin]

Like this, of course.

Did you just

[faux authoritative answer]

Centaurs do not dance individually. Instead Centaur dances involve an entire herd moving together over a massive plain, galloping as one, leaping over each other, executing perfectly timed reverses and turns, accompanied by musical insturments carried and played by their human halves. Centaur Dances would look to a modern audience more like an impossibly fast marching band drill than anything less. (Assuming the viewer had a high enough vantage to see the entire shape of the dance and not be trampled. To a ground bound observer, it would look more like a terrifying, but musical, stampede.)

Does that help?

...It's a Disney movie.

Make the centaur handstand and do crazy tricks by pumping his arms. Or you could have him use his upper body to do the robot. Or This.

[Master of the Dark Triad]

Can a centaur do the worm?

[AM CENTAUR]

Just have him kick...

Everything and everybody around him.

[FrodoOf9Fingers]

Imagine a pole dancer... who is a centaur... Like in the movie, 21

[Roberta Yang]

And of course Henry the Horse dances the waltz

[Abed Nadir]

Like this or this or this?

No? Then what about this?

[Ace of the Flesh Puppets]

Have him try out for the next, new hit Reality TV Show "So You Think You Can Think You Can Dance". Starring judges such as Nigel St. Nigel and Wayne Brady.

[Sethvir]

Try looking up lipizzaner stallions show on you tube.
