The African bush may seem an unlikely ballroom. Book your ticket at peak season, however, and you might bag front row at a dance spectacular. In place of glitter and sequins, expect feathers and scales. And rather than all that fancy Latin, brace yourself for more authentic African rhythms: not mambo, but mamba; not quickstep, but nyala side-step.

But they also do so for the opposite reason: to drive away a rival. Here are some of the top performers.
