If Strictly Come Dancing has planted the seeds of inspiration, then never fear, as there are great holiday spots around the world that also have the dance bug. And, in some of them you can learn as well as watch the professionals in action.

Balinese dancing
Where: Ubud, Bali, Indonesia.
Watch it: In Bali, dancing is a form of storytelling, with lots of measured, intricate movements set to traditional gamelan music. Ubud, in the centre of the island, is the cultural hub, and many of the hotels and resorts offer dance performances as nighttime entertainment. The Puri Saren royal palace offers a more spectacular backdrop, though, and there are performances of various difference dances almost every evening.
Do it: The Bali Spirit Yoga Studio in Ubud offers dance classes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.
