Dancing with strangers at the Goth Club or on Goth nights: social dancing expectation?

​

Hi everyone, im a frequent nightclubber who usually attends Latino and international nights at my local clubs. Although, Ive always wanted to go dancing at a goth club though because i love the sounds, music and atmosphere(i regularly listen to post punk and darkwave but Ive never been to a club where that genre is the main genre of music being played). And i just recently found a local club that hosts a multitude of goth nights and am soon to attend one.

I wanted to make sure my etiquette while dancing though is good while im there though and wanted to ask about dancing: im used to dancing with strangers at the nightclub in both groups and one on one. Group dancing i feel would be very similar but with one on one dancing I wanted to know if thats a thing at goth clubs? Usually at regular nightclubs with latin and international music i go to, if I see someone I want to dance with I extend my hand or ask if they'd like to dance with me which usually results in some really really fun partner dancing. Again, I know the music is extremely different and the atmosphere as well, but wanted to know if this is something I can still do when dancing at goth clubs or if there's a different social expectation on the dance floor. I saw some posts saying how dancing in goth clubs is more solo than social dancing.
