A: I am dancing in the party.
B: I am jumping into the river with friends.
I have a little bit confusion about the 'active and passive' forms of a sentence. Can we make the passive of above mentioned sentences? As far as I am concerned, we don't make the passive of "Intransitive verbs". So, kindly, share your views.

I am dancing in the party.
I am jumping into the river.
You don't have objects of the verbs dance and jump to function as subjects in the passive voice. In other words, these are intransitive verbs, which cannot be transformed into the passive.
It's rare to change prepositional verbs into the passive, For example:
The river is being jumped into by me.
However, you can change phrasal verbs (verbs consisting of more than one word) into the passive. For example:
She looks after the child (active voice).
The child is looked after by her (passive voice).
