In the case of the Mechagnomes and vulpera, they take inspiration from the same sources; with the Mechagnome dances being flipped by gender, while the vulpera are different sections of the same dance.

==Dance animations and videos==
Blizzard released a webpage where you can view (and download animated images of) the dances performed by the WoW Classic races: However, the animations on the site do not show the entire set of dance moves.
You can also view dance-mixes with models and real movie-clips:  WoW dance mix on Youtube
For a compilation of all the playable classes, plus races like ogres, go to  Wow dances (strangely excluding dwarves)
==Notes==
*The Piccolo of the Flaming Fire and Party Totem toys force the user and all nearby friendly players to dance.
*The dance studio was an announced feature for Wrath of the Lich King that would've allowed players to customize their character's dance animation, but the feature was never implemented.
