I recently saw R. Leff at a wedding and asked him to translate
"kezad merakdim lefnei hakallah". He insisted that merakdim means
to dance. As to Rashi and the answers he interpreted that as "body
language" so that the dancing implied or included some attitudes.

In reply to the question of "Keitzad merakdin'', the gemara
brings machlokes BH and BS ie, 'kallah na'eh vechasida' and
'kalla kemos shehi'.How do we understand this,
 if the question was simply talking
about body and language and dancing?
==============

That was exactly the question to him. He felt that body language would 
convey
whether the dancer felt the kallah was beautiful or not.
>>

The Beis Shamai had a different styles of dancing before
a beautiful kallah and an ugly kallah???
