Dancing Script

Dancing Script was designed by Pablo Impallari and released in 2011 as one of the defining script releases of the early Google Fonts period. The letterforms connect continuously across a word, with noticeable vertical bounce between letters — ascenders and descenders are tall, the baseline oscillates slightly, and the overall effect is of naturalistic joined handwriting rather than formal calligraphy. The design draws on Latin American casual script traditions and makes no attempt at an italic (the connecting construction already implies oblique movement). It covers Latin and Latin-extended scripts, runs from Regular through Bold, and includes a variable font axis.
