slow danced
Held and shuffled
Slow danced is the past tense of slow dance—to dance with a partner in close embrace, swaying gently to unhurried music.
The term evokes romantic intimacy, often at school dances or weddings: We slow danced to our song.
The nervous anticipation of asking someone to slow dance is a staple of adolescent memory.
