English term or phrase: Italian dances
Needed: All kinds of dance forms, dance movements and words connected with dances in Italy.

My latest short story being written is called 8 1/2 and I would love to recreate Fellini-like rhythms in a short story.

I know it's very difficult for me but some inputs would surely help. The idea in the story, like Fellini's renowned film, is one of sheer celebration.

Explanation:
I just did a quick search with Googles and there are tons of sites, divided up according to centuries and styles.

If you want to recreate a Fellinesque atmosphere perhaps we should concentrate on traditional and contemporary dances from his region, Emilia Romagna.

what do you sayƉ
