As seen on http://failblog.org:
"I just didn’t feel all that welcome there for some reason."

A ruefully-smiling man in a low-backed manual wheelchair without push handles sits under a banner reading 'IF YOU CAN WALK YOU CAN DANCE!!' Standing couples dancing, people standing, and another person in a wheelchair are visible in the background. Captioned 'INSPIRATIONAL FAIL'.

"Inspirational Fail

Went to my first and last dance instructional appointment with my wife at the Dance Doctor in Santa Monica, CA"


A little bit of Googling shows that the slogan also repeats on the website. The FAQ says that "Dancing is as easy as walking once you are taught by a Dance Doctor Instructor." So if walking isn't an option, learning with these instructors doesn't seem to be one either.

Granted, dancing on wheels does seem like a very different art than dancing with feet, requiring different instructor skill sets. But oh my goodness, that photo just says it all.
