The Porcelain & Pain is most commonly danced to “Porcelain & Pain” by Steven Rodriguez. Any upbeat track in a similar tempo works once you know the steps.
32 counts across 2 walls. The same sequence repeats, rotating 180° to face the opposite wall each time until you're back to where you started.
Yes, the Porcelain & Pain is rated intermediate. If you're new to line dancing, get comfortable with basic grapevines and triple steps first, then drill it one 8-count at a time.
No. Like every line dance, the Porcelain & Pain is danced solo in rows. Everyone does the same steps facing the same way, so you can join in without a partner.
Slow the tutorial video on this page to 70–75% speed in YouTube's settings and drill one 8-count at a time. Once each section feels automatic, chain two together, then run the whole dance to music.
A line dance is a choreographed sequence danced solo in rows. Everyone does the same steps facing the same way, no partner needed. The Porcelain & Pain repeats the same 32-count sequence, turning to face a new wall each time through. Once the counts click, you can join in the moment the song comes on.
