  1. Step 1 You’re excited.
    When people use the dancing emojis, there’s a good chance they’re excited about something, from fun weekend plans to a big event to something they’ve achieved.[1] They bring a fun, playful vibe to messages.
    • “Can you believe I’m hanging with my crush tomorrow? 🕺🕺”
    • “I am so ready for the concert this weekend 💃🕺🎵🎤”
    • “Guess who just got promoted! 🎉💃 💃 💃🎉”
  2. Step 2 You’re feeling confident.
