"Lets all line up now! Off the wall, wallflowers! Out of the corners! Come stand out here in front of meeee with a bit of space around you so you don't stand on anyone's toes once we get started. I hope you're all warmed up!" Yeah! Enthusiasm!
"Okay SO one of the COOLEST kinds of wandless magic is.... dance magic! A lot of Dance Magic also has some really crazy incantations or rhymes that go along with it. That's the FUNcantations part. Basically what Dance Magic is, is a series of steps, sometimes really complicated, sometimes easier, that are in essence instead of the wand movement. So its like your whooooooole body is the wand." Shaaaake it out. She did jazz hands and a shimmy with great enthusiasm.
"Rain dances, are examples of this! And some of you might have heard of Wakefield's Sambata. That is an example of Dance Magic. And there are a BUNCH more. Can anyone think of any? Has anyone heard of any other particular dances that bring the magic? And if you haven't, what would you like to call a dance magic spell, if you got to make one up? And what would you like it to do?" ooc: This is where you get to be CREATIVE. Two options here:
1) Make up something like 'Wakefield's Sambata' that supposedly already exists in the Magical World that your charrie has heard of. They don't have to know what it does, or you can make that up too. They definitely shouldn't be able to actually DO it 
we're just talking about hearing about something in passing. Creative license is fun.
2) Have your charrie think up a name for a dance magic spell. For example, if West was in class he might decide that it'd be cool if there was a spell called 'West's Wombat Hustle' which allows the caster/dancer to conjure up a Wombat. Belle decided to make her dance name as, Belle's Beautiful Prances. Yeah that sounded clever and unique. She was excited to start creating her own dances and learning them with magic. Quote:

"And you'll find out what it does once we get to that point. SO if you're all ready, lets go!" Cela turned around so that her back was to the students, easier to follow that way.
She hopped on her left foot to the left and at the same time clapped her hands in the air above her head, then wiggled her behind and kicked her right leg out in front of her.
"That's the first part. Lets try it together, try to get your hops and kicks as high as possible and clap like you mean it!" Enthusiasm, she had it. Little wonder she'd once been a one girl cheerleading squad for the entire Ravenclaw Quidditch team.
HOP!CLAP. WIGGLE. KICK.
Aaaand agaiiiin!
HOP!CLAP. WIGGLE. KICK.
Belle was laughing at what the professor was doing. It looked silly but if it got the job done, it got the job done. Belle did what she was told. She hopped on her left foot to the left and at the same time clapped her hands in the air above her head, then wiggled her behind and kicked her right leg out in front of her. As she followed the professor, she tried to do it herself.
CLAP. Hop. Kick. Wiggle? No no no that is not right.
Wiggle Kick. Hop. Clap? Nope not it!
HOP. CLAP. WIGGLE. KICK!
Now that's it! Belle was getting the hang of it and her heart rate was pumping. She was feeling the workout.
