Dancing

How come in England it was important to know how to dance when you were looking for a husband or a wife?

  1. Well in Jane Austens time, it was something they can bond over and get a feel for each other, and it's just simple way finding someone special. Dancing was kind of like a date. If man liked the lady he would call after her later and either from that point court or dote upon her. The more dances you go together the more you get to know each other.
