Why Do You Think They Call It “The Big Dance?”

NCAA’s biggest tournament of the year is right around the corner! I found this relevant post on a message board frequented by college basketball coaches. (Or maybe I didn’t.)


A  L  E  R T!!!  COLLEGE BASKETBALL COACHES WHO WANT TO DANCE THEIR WAY TO MARCH MADNESS!

I’m Danny Moves, freelance dance instructor extraordinaire. I freely admit that I know next to nothing about basketball. However, I know everything about dancing, and I also know that it could very well be the key to your season.

Dancing is an effective bonding tool. It makes coaches more relatable to their players. And the more players like their coach, the harder they play, and that leads to more wins (at least in theory).

Anyway, it all starts with dancing! And yes, of course, great dancing will pay wonderful dividends in recruiting. You can’t even begin to quantify the value of a viral moonwalking video. It will make you familiar with recruits before you even set foot in their living rooms.

For a second, OK, two or three, imagine what it would be like to spin on your head in the locker room. It’s not as tough as it looks, especially if you’re bald, although I do have a few hair-challenged clients.

Bad hip? Achy feet? No problem. I have a catalogue of low-impact moves. You’ll be surprised how much you can do with just your arms.

You might not have the most NIL funds or the largest arena, but you can be the best dancer! First, you’ll win over your players with your moves, and then you’ll win games.

make it all very easy. I come to you and teach you in the comfort of your home or office. I also do video consultation. Everything is strictly confidential.

You can reach me at my website [redacted to keep losers from entering]. Let’s start dancing and winning today!
