Roaring 20s/Gatsby

Naming any  dance  has  three rules:

Five words or less We've had 1.  We've had 5.  Six or more words begins to look like schoolwork.  Short & wordsmithed.

Vague and obscure - Don't be specific.  The name needs to be open to interpretation and broad.  Geography & foreign words can be good...

Classy wording - No current lingo.  No  "bro" or "bruh" in it or any acronyms like "YOLO".  No trendy shortcuts (like "sus", "cap" or even "legit")  Names should have gusto and be uptown.  

​

For example - if our theme was Paris:

​

"Joie de Vie" or "On the Seine's Banks" are dance names

that fit the 3 rules.

​

"Twerking Twice at Notre Dame" is straight dumb & just wrong

​

MORE GRADING = Anytime before this Sunday (August 11th) @ 8 AM, please post on the new "Roaring 20s" Padlet = link below.  For (up to) 10 points (fewer words/copying/anything resembling minimal effort may get less), you can:

​

1.  Suggest a name(s) that follow the rules above

2.  Show support for another name explaining why you think it's good

3.  Offer a derivative of somebody else's name (keeping basic idea of name, but different wording)

​

You cannot:

​

1.  Shred someone else's name (demean or lessen it somehow)

2.  Repeat a previous poster's efforts (cut/paste just to get a posting grade - your post should be different from everyone else's)
