The beat is 1&2, 3&4, etc, with the feet comfortably together. Various arm and hand motions can be done when Pony-ing, and movement on the dance floor can occur; however, there is no line-of-dance. Couples do not touch, and they are generally facing each other, but turns and chase positions are also possible. <br /> <br />The Pony is mentioned in the Wilson Pickett song Land of a Thousand Dances and in the Nick Lowe song "I Knew the Bride". <br /> <br />The Pony is mentioned in the Go-go's song "We Got the Beat." <br /></i> <br />_Wikipedia Sun, 24 Feb 2008 13:06:02 +0000 http://wordie.org/words/pony#comments
