Terpsichore fits, but does not match the clue. Problem is, the clue setter quite often gets things wrong.

terpsichore
Why don't you think it fits the clue? Terpsichore is dance.
********** has a point: Terpsichore was the muse of dance - the dictionary doesn't support the name being used to mean dancing itself (obviously there's the adjective terpsichorean too). I agree - dodgy clue.

I think the answer is terpsichory

I agree, the clue setter often gets it wrong.

according to the oed  terpsichore not only the muse but also "dancing as an art"
Interesting - nothing in Chambers at all.
If anybody thinks Michal Mepham "often" gets things wrong why not e-mail him and tell him so? [email protected].
