Keep both feet on the floor and let your partner ski you around him.   Grin

You have to fight through a lot of crap before you find your way up out of the toilet. Sometimes I think I have a good hold on the rim then I slip back in.  Each time I don't sink quite as deep though. - Rugby

on a slippery floor its hard, really easy to lose your balance or your left poise, either way it doesnt end well

Zac

yes and the biggest thing is that you loose confidence and take small steps....which is not good for your dancing.

Yep, cause you're afraid of falling over! But I say, go for it! If you fall, fall hard!

I'll take it as a good sign, then, that I've been thrown from horses more times than I can count but I never seriously hurt myself.  Some strained muscles and soreness + bruises, but that's about it.
