I love to dance. It’s good for the body and the soul. It gets you comfortable in your skin. It’s great exercise. It’s therapeutic. And it’s fun.Most gals will agree that dance clubs are too often packed with creepy men who will grind up on us without permission or warning. Dance classes are great, but sometimes it’s intimidating if you can’t master the choreography. Thank God for Dance Dance Party PartyAs explained on their site Dance Dance Party Party more than a dance party, it’s a mother effin’ revolution! It’s a judgment-free zone full of amazing ladies just like you. We guarantee you can do your funkiest, craziest dance moves and no one will bat an eye because we’ll all be doing the same.DDPP is the baby of Marcy Girt and Glennis McMurray who run the NY chapter. After a night of being burned, yet again, by the cabaret laws of NY (no dancing in bars without a cabaret license!) they hatched a plan to create an environment where they could dance without being scolded or hit on by greasers at the clubs. Thus: DDPP was born!Girt and McMurray have created a concept that empowers women and creates a safe and celebratory community. Their concept has become so popular that satellite DDPP’s have sprung up in sister cities like Boston, Chicago, LA and more!For more info, inspiration or to start a DDPP in your town visit http://dancedancepartyparty.wordpress.com/ and get movin’ girls!
