Why is it that whites seem to have no rythm when it comes to dancing and they create some weird dance styles like square dancing, ho down, river dance. But hispanics and blacks have a lot of rythm and create some very popular dance styles with rythm?

Hispanics are rooted in Spanish culture. Spain was ruled by blacks (the moors, Turks, Muslims, whatever you want to call them) until like 1492 I believe it was. Their capital in Spain was Toledo. This rule lasted like 700 years and during that time the spaniards and muslims intersexed and exchanged a lot of cultural beliefs. Africans have always played the drums. Being the foundation of rhythm, the drums, it's easy to dance to. The rest of Western civilization was more of a wind and string instrument orienated society - not so much affiliated with the rhythms brough about by percussion instruments. Therefore I believe over centuries, this has been a nurtured trait in all the peoples descended from blacks and subsequently spanish speaking people.

everyone can dance. any race, culture, nationality, everyone.
if you can feel the music tickling up your body, in wonderful spasms of joy and happiness, you can dance, even if you think you can't.
