Welcome to the Fitbit Community, @JillRFTH.

I appreciate your participation in the Forums and sharing your concern about auto recognizing your dancing activity. While we don't have Dancing as an option for the auto-recognize exercises, your activity may be recognized as Sport or Aerobic workout. You can find more information about exercise goals and adjust your exercise recognition settings in this help article: How do I track exercise and activity with my Fitbit device? 

You can edit the type of exercise later: How do I edit or delete an exercise or activity in the Fitbit app?

If you have any questions, feel free to let me know.

Hi thanks for your feedback. I have the aerobic set to autorecognize and count but It doesn’t seem to work

Hi @JillRFTH, thank you for your reply.  

I appreciate the additional details. SmartTrack recognizes activities based on the continuous movement of your arms. Sometimes, motions such as placing your arms on the bar of a treadmill, or pushing a stroller while you walk, may interrupt SmartTrack. Additionally, stopping in the middle of an exercise may interrupt the activity tracking.

By default, SmartTrack recognizes an exercise that lasts at least 15 minutes. If your activities aren't being recognized, lowering the time auto-exercise recognition setting to 10 minutes may help ensure they record properly.

You can also manually log your activity. 

I'll be around if you need further assistance.
