Hello! I've been lurking for a little while and this is my first post, so first I thought I would introduce myself briefly.

Thanks sooo much! I thought it was が but second-guessed myself at the last minute! Thanks for describing when to use it, that will help me remember which one is most appropriate. :D

Is it true that you can shorten 踊っている to 踊ってる? I might be thinking of something else...

Yes, it works the same for any verb.

You need to take the sentences apart. As its_anya says too, "you can say that you saw it like any other noun..."Your sentence, broken up, is:【【 あなたが踊っている】の】見た
