Headcanon: the Dwarves do a version of the Phillipine Tinikling as a courting dance, only with long-handled war-axes or pikes instead of bamboo. Imagine the heavy boots thundering, the braids and beards flying! (google Tinikling Bamboo Dance | Phillipine Dances for one that speeds up)

AHHHH

This is amazing, thank you so so much for telling me about this! I LOVE DANCE.

I found some incredible stuff on youtube! This one had me enthusiastically clapping along, and this one is fab too. Just awesome! (I BET IT HURTS LIKE A BUGGER IF YOU GET YOUR FOOT CAUGHT)
