> dancing really connected people. I hope it becomes a thing again.

Social dancing’s demise has been greatly exaggerated! If you live in any moderately large city, there is almost certainly a swing dance scene, and you can find people doing social Latin (salsa, bachata) pretty much everywhere. My city’s swing dance club has a social every Sunday, with events on most Saturday evenings too.

I'm quite surprised by the impression in the first place, since "dancing events" as a way to meet others and connect seems more ubiquitous than ever to me.

It may not look much like typical social dances performed with a partner, but I'm definitely thinking of clubbings, raves and festivals as happenings were "dancing connects people" - and it's one of the primary ways almost anyone I know has been socializing, at least throughout their 20s and 30s.
