In the 26 years I have been living for the Lord, I have NEVER seen a choreographed or learned dance routine in a church service. I will give you your stick ministry. The only one I have ever witnessed brought tears to my eyes, and I truly felt the Holy Ghost; but have you ever seen a stick ministry in the world?? I haven't. Maybe it's out there and I don't know about it, but I have not been subject to a stick performance in a worldy setting.
I have, however, seen stepping in the world. They have step classes perform all the time during our county festivals or what not during the year. They are not being dirty or provocative in any fashion, but I did see these routines first in a secular environment. Hence, I draw the conclusion that we have learned out step routines from the world.

Don't you believe that the Jews used choreographed dancing before the Lord? Miriam LED the women in a dance; that signifies it was orderly and not just free dancing.
