==Definition==
The expression "'''pull shapes'''" is a British (en-UK) colloqualism that refers to the act of dancing, in particular perhaps to the act of dancing sufficiently expressively as to make "[[shapes]]" with one's arms, legs, and overall motions on the dance floor. Use in context by [[Gwenno]] during [http://www.avclub.com/content/interview/the_pipettes an interview]:"Pull shapes on the dance floor, you know? Like when you go dancing: 'You want to go pull some shapes?' Or 'I was pulling some shapes on the dance floor.' "
