Then again in the beginners review class it should be re-emphasised that the taxis are available, will be happy to dance with them, etc, etc...

Few men savour the idea of being a drag on someones time, or of looking pathetic, and many see it that way. I think it is up to taxi dancers to seek out the shrinking violets and get them on the floor. It often helps if the other guys introduce themselves and tell them that they felt the same when they were beginners.
