I wonder if you could post a precise reference for "stooped." In Logic of Practice, page 72 of Richard Nice's translation, Bourdieu links the opposition of the straight and the bent to gender; do you have another reference of the same type? Also, re. Bourdieu and dance, I wrote a short paper using Bourdieu's ideas about how our understanding of practice is effected by the mode of representation of practice, specifically to talk about Rudolf Laban's dance notation ("Labanotation"). Dance is, I think, a very good area for making use of Bourdieu.
