communication through dance

I am interesting in looking at different forms of communication, both primitive and sophisticated, physical and verbal.  Although my research hasn't fully kicked off I already spotted some people (in Dundee high street on saturday) in the act of dancing.  There is of course many different forms of dancing, Scottish, Salsa, clubbing, but they all share one thing in common, it is a social tool, and people communicate and express themselves through movement.

in china, you often find retired people gethering in community garden doing simple ballroom dancing after dinner... not to mention the famous crowd doing Taiji early in the morning in parks. Beautiful scene it is,I wish I can do either of these!

You should look or even go and try 5-Rhythm dance groups. My flatmate does it and he swears it is life altering stuff.
