I wasn’t really surprised that Abranimations was the #1 choice – they are inexpensive, good quality, and fairly regularly put out new stuff. If you are looking for inexpensive dances, Abranimations offers a ‘Daily Dance Special’ where one of the dances in the store is available for a day at only $45L.Ī pretty good deal if you’re short on L$! Observations These are very nice to use when doing a routine where you have multiple dancers. One of the other nice things at Abranimations is that when you buy dances in packs, you receive ‘mirrored’ versions of the dances. They are also one of the only dance stores to put out new content on a fairly regular basis.

Single copy dances at Abranimations generally cost around $150L. They have a pretty large selection of dances, and they are very reasonably priced. The #1 dance animation store, with 54% of the votes, was.

They do put out new dances, but not nearly as often as I want.Īlso, dances at A&M are a bit pricier than other dance stores – a copy version of a dance generally runs around $400L. They have a huge selection of various styles of dance, including couples dances and chair/pole dances.Ī&M also puts out ‘fad’ dances, like the Cupid Shuffle, Gangnam Style, and the like. However, they do have a bulk discount, so if you use their ‘shopping cart’ HUD, you can get a discount on your purchase, depending on how much you spend.Ĭoming in at #2 (18%) was perennial favorite A&M Mocap.Ī&M has long had some of the best mocap dance animations in SL. Henmations used to be one of my favorite stores, but it has been quite some time since they put out new dances. All too often SL will ‘eat’ inventory and then you are just out of luck – and $L.) (Side note: If you are going to purchase animations, I highly suggest buying copy versions. I actually thought Humanoid would score higher, because their animations are very popular with club dancers.Īkeyo is more of an AO store, but they do have a nice selection of dance animations. ResultsĪkeyo, Henmations, and Humanoid all tied with 9% of the votes. I have my own personal favorites, of course, but I wanted to see what stores others liked.

Poses and AO’s aside, I wanted to stick with dance animation stores. The spreadsheet has the more current information, because many of the store blogs are not updated frequently. I try to keep a (somewhat) updated spreadsheet of some of the dance/pose stores I frequent here. I collect poses, because you never know which one will be the perfect one to use in a routine, and AO stores can be a treasure trove for transition animations. A week or so ago I asked readers to vote for their favorite animation store.Īs a dancer, I think I’ve shopped at pretty much every animation store in SL.
