I should have been more clear about what I'm trying to ask. I was wondering if autistics can move their bodies smoothly to any type of music? And I'm not talking about simple back and forth steps, I mean can they grove and move their entire bodies to the music??? I know a lot can play sports but it seems like when my cousins that are on the spectrum try to move, they look awkward and don't really get involved in sports.
That's the only way I can dance. Once I get in the groove I become quite popular at dances because I ALWAYS PARTY HARD!

Identify the snare or clap in the timing. Everything revolves around it in most danceable music. Do whatever with the rest of the time as long as you come back on the snare. Clack! Boom cht Clack cht. Boom boom Clack.
Country, Rap, Rock, Techno, whatever. Hit the Clack and you can not go wrong.
Sports is mind over matter. You just have to imagine things much less significant and they get easier. Don't forget to practice more than anyone else does. You can prevail at anything if you try hard enough (AS or not).
And boom-cha dance music needs to die hard. Aside from it being boring and obnoxious, it's much funnier to find the groove on your own, such as in the melody, than to have it mechanically dictated.
