Even a rudimentary reading of the 24 PHB would show how the Dance Bard is the weakest bard subclass and barely does what a monk does in its sleep. It's DPS is too low to be a martial, lacks any sort of usable defense in melee, and if you are falling back on your magic to fill the gap then you already lost because you would get more out of a lore or glamour bard. You don't even get a real 2nd attack unless you are burning bardic inspiration (and your best use of it doesn't trigger you 2nd attack) and you are MAD as hell because you need Charisma for spells and Dex for combat and can't even benefit from True Strike.Dance Bard only works when you multiclass it with monk and realize you are going to be a weak combatant and mediocre caster. Which is on point for bard.</blockquote>
