You can dance, for inspiration - or so the song says. Well, you can dance for any reason you want effectively - who is going to stop you (though one or two may laugh)? There are some dance crazes that come and go, but here are ten that stood the test of time. My favourite, the Birdy Song, does not seem to have made it in to the list for some reason! Only joking - honestly..... oh and there is a YouTube clip accompanying each dance, so you can get all nostalgic. This one, however, this one has made the list!

Late in 1978, the Village People recorded the song “Y.M.C.A.” and became a hit the following year. The group didn’t realized that their song would create a dance craze. One has only to make hand movements to spell out “Y.M.C.A.” The dance is a favorite among sporting events and is added by cheerleading squads to their routine.
