What AquinasFan said. No one ever danced in the Temple. Or Or at the Last Supper. Or on Calvary.

And please, correct me if I'm wrong, but nowhere is it indicated that David did well by dancing before the Ark. Indeed, it is related that his act caused enmity between him and his first wife, to the result that he had no children with her.

2 Samuel 6:21-23--"21 And David said to Michol: Before the Lord, who chose me rather than thy father, and than all his house, and commanded me to be ruler over the people of the Lord in Israel, 22 I will both play and make myself meaner than I have done: and I will be little in my own eyes: and with the handmaid of whom thou speakest, I shall appear more glorious. 23 Therefore Michol the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death."

This also seems to presage the more despicable acts that David would commit later in his reign. Nowhere does it seem to be lauding his dancing before the Ark.
