a really good one is find a new way to dance by young love
it does have lyrics tho

if u really want no lyrics, a good band would be recycled percussions

hope this helps..

other good songs to dance to would be please dont stop the music-rihanna, foundations-kate nash, outa my head-ashley simpson, dont wanna be in love-good charlette, or theres a class for this-cute is what we aim for

low- flo rida ft. t pain

Dance at the Gym
from West Side Story

drunken monkey search it on youtube it is a really great song it doesnt have any words........or if u r doing hip hop u should do a dance to the song low!!!! i love that song

If you dont want lyrics and want it highly emotive........

Zero 7-Distractions OR
Zero 7-Destiny.

theres an instrumental version of clocks by coldplay on the piano moods cd. it really beautiful. it's quite fast though

also look up some of chris botti's music.
it's trumpet music and very beautiful
ooh look up a thousand kisses deep by him. it's beautiful and instrumental. most of his stuff is.
good luck!!

Is it supposed to be slow or fast? Complicated with a lot of jumps or more fluid, pas de bouree-y?

most people learn how to spell before dance: IT'S SPELLED C-H-O-R-E-O-G-R-A-P-H. thats the problem with todays choreographers, they know nothing about dance in the first place. P.S. try the instrumental verson of the song speed of sound by coldplay
