REQUIRED ELEMENTS PER DANCE STYLE:
NOTE: All dances will be expected to be performed in an authentically Gorean manner. It is duly noted, for example, that while a slave may become aroused and dance her sexual need, there is no precident in the books for a kajira to publicly masturbate or perform other similarly graphic sex acts while dancing. That said, except where specified for the purpose of "acting" in a particular style, a kajira is free to express any emotions which she feels compelled to convey during any dance... of course at her own peril if she is found displeasing.
-----------------------
BEAUTY DANCE:
1. Begins immediately nearly starved with desire dancing her need before all the men.
2. She then focuses her attentions to one Master, kneeling before him and indicating her lust to be taken by him alone with unspoken expressions.
3. Feeling rejected by not being taken then and there she turns away and dances upon the floor more wantonly with increased frustration.
4. She repeatedly looks to the Master hoping for the command to have her come back to him and she continues to move more hungrily every time her begging is not appeased.
5. She finally rises to her feet and angrily dances by the other Masters trying to tempt them but evading their touch.
6. She finally returns to the one Master and dances herself to complete exhaustion until she collapses before him.

-----------------------
BELT DANCE:
1. The belt dance is performed with a Warrior.
2. She wears a white silken cord around her waist
3. The girl's head is not suppose to rise above the Warrior's belt, but only purists concern themselves with such niceties; wherever the dance is performed, however, it is imperative that the girl never rise to her feet.
4. She writhes at his feet, moving as though being struck with a whip.
5. She then shows obeisance
6. She then grows increasingly desperate to please him
7. The Warrior finally takes a knee to her side, bends her back in a bow position and then lowers her to the ground and breaks away at the end of the music

-----------------------
CHAIN DANCE
1. The dancer is heavily veiled.
2. She moves quickly back and forth, appearing frightened and avoiding imaginary objects, seemingly being chased.
3. A Warrior appears and thwarts her movements, finally catching her and pulling back her veils and she pleadingly tries to escape his clutches
4. He lets go of her and she submits to him in misery as he collars and leashes her with a chain
5. She dances woefully away to the full length of the chain and the turns suddenly savage, tearing away her robes and pulling on the chain in rebellion
6. She dances around the Warrior who takes in and slackens the length of chain at his will, every time she pulls away with different attitude and manner than the last, each time being permitted less distance away.
7. The Warrior finally draws the girl entirely to him when she is finally exhausted and obedient. He then kisses her, lifts her in his arms and carries her off

-----------------------
NEED DANCE
1. She begins by feigning indifference to the presence of men
2. She grows restless as she feels the subtle pangs of her sexual urges just beginning to manifest. She grows anxious, full of self-doubt, fearing she might be unsatisfying
3. She reservedly but clearly acknowledges to the Masters that she has sexual needs and beautifully displays herself in an open and sensual invitation
4. She begins to shamelessly beg for her sexual satisfaction.
5. Overcome with desire, full of panic that she will be left unsated, she pleads for her rape as a desperate and totally submitted slave, usually unable to even stay on her feet as she collapses to the floor and finally ends in a weak posture still reaching to be taken.

-----------------------
POLE DANCE
1. The dancer is tethered to a pole.
2. She dances with the pole and for the pole, as if it was her Master.
3. She continues to try to please the pole by kissing, caressing and moving against and about it
4. She begins to get aroused herself and continues more wantonly as she dances on the pole as if it is her Master
5. She is pulled away from the pole and she struggles and reaches for it as she is permitted slowly back to it where she continues her obeisant dancing
6. She is finally overcome, throwing herself before them men watching.
Note: This dance can also be performed without being bound by tethers and around an imaginary pole that the dancer clearly mimes around.

-----------------------
DANCE OF THE SIX THONGS:
1. Six men, each holding a free end of a length of binding fiber, hold a kneeling slave (who wears only five pieces of steel about her collar, wrists and ankles) and fastened the thongs to her (one for each wrist and ankle, and two about her waist) and then step away to stand six or eight feet from her, three on a side.
2. She starts to move as though not knowing herself bound and seems annoyed or puzzled at the feel of a slight tug, but then she is permitted to move as she wishes.
3. Then, still kneeling, as she tries to do something specific (like take down her hair) she is teasingly restrained, being permitted to occasionally get to her task and then repeatedly getting pulled back. She gets increasingly frustrated and the more she struggles, the more she is restrained.
4. She finally realizes her bondage and in fear and/or anger, and leaps to her feet to fight fiercely, dancing in a frenzy
5. Her fear mounts as the men take up the slack, and her movement become subdued and controlled, until finally they bind her hand and foot and lift her over their heads, displaying her captured to observers.

-----------------------
TETHER DANCE
1. A tether is fastened about the slave's throat and it is either held by a Master or fastened to a stake.
2. The girl dances with the tether in any manner that she feels compelled, from fighting it to loving it, trying to please the Master, always very apparent as a slave
3. Typically finishes the dance in heated need and total obeisance

-----------------------
TILE DANCE
1. The dance is usually performed with the slaves body on the floor, typically red tiles, before a Master's couch, with her neck chained to the slave ring.
2. The girl first moves sensuously as if she is completely alone and only she is aware of her sexual need
3. She then appears surprised by the Master's attention and attempts to suppress and hide her tormenting lust
4. She finally surrenders her pride and openly begs him to touch her.

-----------------------
VEIL DANCE
1. The dancer is well covered in loosely tucked silk veils, with much jewelry (often made from small denomination coins) and finger cymbals
2. She starts to dance apparently fixed upon an imaginary slave pole [Note: see POLE DANCE for greater detail of that style of dance, but in this case the focus and highlight is upon the use of the veils. The slave pole serves more simply as a center of gravity for the slave to dance around]
3. Upon a signal from the music she approaches a Master and removes a silk veil, floating it about and touching the Master with it and then returning to the center. This usually continues until all her silks are removed, either by herself or the Master(s).

-----------------------
WHIP DANCE
1. A Master with a whip stands near the dancer and cracks it close to her but not striking her, unless she performs badly, as she reacts as if hit, ever dancing in an attempt to be pleasing.
2. The Whip Master approaches and appears to beat her down to the floor and stands over her as she poses in total submission
3. The Whip Master then pulls her to him (perhaps wrapping her in the whip) and drags her off, tossing her to other watching Masters so they may have their way with her
