The very first skill is an AoE; there's very fast early levelling

All Dancers have been reset to citizens after January 14th, 2008.
On the European version, Dancers have been re-added
On the AeriaDOMO version, Dancers were readded on June 9th, 2008 in the Version 6 Patch
To gain the Dancer qualification you must be at least level 10. Speak with Busker Biff in Placid Plain (accessible from Eversun South) and she will hand you the Dilapidated Dancewear. Take the Dancewear to Granny June the Seamstress in the southwestern farming area (approx. X:169, Y:481), and she will fix it for 1 Wild Hide, 1 Down and 100 Gold. Wait one minute for her to complete the repair, speak to her again to receive the Glamorous Gown, and return to Busker Biff to earn your qualification.
Down can be obtained by gathering 20 Chicken Feather through the Herding skill and refining them, or often it can be bought in the marketplace off other players.
Note: this is essentially the same quest as the one for Musician, with the NPCs just a step apart. I suggest you do both in one go to save yourself some running time.
