Default Why Is Dancing Immoral?

Why have so many religious people in the past (and some in the present) considered dancing immoral? What is it about dance that would make it immoral? Does anyone know of someone who still thinks dancing is immoral?

It's only immoral when I do it. I look like someone needs to put me out of my misery when the Disco Dance Fever starts to thump.

Dance is primal. It releases the mind from the habitual part of living, as well as many inhibitions a person may have concerning the body. It lets loose that inner child within us, allowing it to have more sway over us than normal.

In other words, some find it evil because it's a primitive form of fun, like sex.

Because those who outlawed it secretly have no rhythm and didn't want to embarass themselves?
