Typically, the man leads when dancing to Banda music.

You and your partner could also hold one set of hands close to your chests if you prefer. This might help give you a little more balance and you start to get into the music.

When you dance, it’s okay if your knees come apart a little bit. Keeping them close together will help guide your bodies and keep you in sync with each other.

Banda dancing features a lot of small, quick movements, so keeping your legs about hip-width apart will help you keep your balance.

As you get more comfortable dancing to Banda music, add in little kicks along with the beat.

Whether you’re a man or a woman, try wearing shoes that have at least some tread on the bottom when you go dancing.

Try listening to a variety of Banda music before going dancing to get yourself in the right mindset.

Be mindful of other couples on the dance floor so you don’t accidentally collide with anyone.

Banda music has some similarities to the tempo of polka music, and there is often a beat line from the brass instruments that you can easily follow.
