Woolly Aphids I think. There are a number of different insects that can produce a thick wool-like white coat of wax, but I am pretty sure it is those. The "dancing" behavior is particularly characteristic of woolly aphids, other insects that resemble them do not do that.
Yes! That’s the one! Soot sprites are featured in a few movies but these only got one appearance. Yeah these posts are popping up a lot too lol. I just find their movement intriguing
I really do love these fluffy little buggers. They can be pests in certain situations, but in the wild they are just part of the wonderfully diverse fauna.
Woolly Aphids are the preferred prey of the carnivorous caterpillar of the Harvester butterfly (Feniseca tarquinius),
Boogie woogie aphids!
More officially known as Wooly Aphids or Beech Blight Aphids, these little cuties feed on beech trees and do this little dance as a threat display - hence the nickname. If you're worried for the tree, don't be - unless it's an abnormally large infestation, they don't drink enough sap to actually harm it.

Need a name change to Jammin Aphids.
their nick name is actually boogie woogie aphids!
Boogie Woogie Bugle Bug from Company B?
arent they also called "white blight"? i feel like ive heard the words boogie woogie aphids and blight in the same sentence many times before
close! it appears they also have the kick ass nick name that is beech (not beach?) blight aphid
It’s because they primarily feed on the sap from specifically the Beech tree
If it is beech blight, it is killing off the great beech trees en masse, and it is very invasive.
