Most of the descriptions are either metaphorical (eg, fire "dancing"), although there is also Vlad's mention of the "jhereg dance" that Loiosh does to make himself look bigger. Heh. Amazon search inside appears to confirm my memory that Aibynn danced when he drummed before the Empress. But Amazon is being cranky and refusing to show me the entire page. Another book search tool is http://books.google.com/ Although I see that they don't have the Ace books scanned, and they aren't letting me view the full page either. Or maybe it's something to do with my browser.
