We won’t lie to you: Seattle is not a dancing city. The official Seattle Dance Move is a barely perceptible head bob with (if you’re lucky) a light sway from side to side. But to conclude that no one dances in Seattle would be flat-out wrong. People DO dance in Seattle! Wildly! With passion! They just don’t do it everywhere. To help you understand that this city isn’t totally stiff, here’s a list of Seattle’s favorite dance spots.

Note: This is a very abridged list. It leaves out plenty of bars that have dance floors. Visit The Stranger‘s online dance events calendar for the city’s best, up-to-date list of Seattle dance nights.
