Hmm! Married couples act really funny at times, no wonder they never want to live with their parents. Anyway, let me help with a few fatwas here:
Rules for Men:

According to Ihtiyat-e Wajib, a man must not dance even if it is for his wife.
Imam Khomeini, Ayatullah Araki, Ayatullah Gulpaygani & Ayatullah Behjat
It is not allowed for a man to dance for any reason, even for his wife.
Ayatullah Araki & Ayatullah Gulpaygani

Rules for Women:
It is not allowed for women to dance, except if one wants to dance for her husband. Imam Khomeini, Ayatullah Gulpaygani & Ayatullah Tabrizi

Rules for both Men and Women:
It is not a problem to dance for those of the same sex as long as nothing Haraam is involved.
Ayatullah Lankarani & Ayatullah Tabrizi

This dancing comes from the same root as vain and futile amusements.
Ayatullah Gulpaygani
I hope this helps.
