Because of the female Dervish spinning and turning attacks with their scythes and the long dress, I just can't get rid of having those Turkish whirling dance with lots of spinning and turning in mind. How graceful will that be!

I think it's no coincidence that the dancers are called the Whirling Dervishes

As for the males I have no idea lol

Heheh they will look like spinning tops and if you coordinate; multiple dervishes will bounce off of each other like that short-lived custom-combat-top game *evil smirk*

The collectors dance should turn them into a random avataar (like the elite skills do) and do a danec that corresponds w/ that avataar.
For the standard dance - female - the dance from the song walk like an egytian. FTW

Belly dancing? Just something that comes up to me when thinking of this sort of desert setting. The dresses work right with it..Dunno how anet would implement the hip movement xD

Um... female Elementalists already have the belly dance. I hope the Dervishes don't get it. I'd rather see something new. I agree with the OP, something with twirling would look good.

lol I was misunderstood, I knew the real life Whirling Dervishes are all-male dancers, Guild Wars' male Dervish are also in long robes so I can't figure out what other kind of type will be suitable in that attire. I mean to say that the dance will look great on Guild Wars' female Dervish.
