While I do enjoy the bard class, it's focus is on auditory performance. I decided to create a Bard-like class that is more geared towards dance and body. So the Spell Dancer exists somewhere between the Monk and Bard, which I think is a really fun combination. It does, however, seem rather empty.
Spell Dancer
Hit dice d8
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: gauntlets, daggers, punching daggers, mace, club, quarterstaff, dart, sling, crossbow (light, heavy). The Spell dancer is not proficient with any armor or shields. Wearing Armor interferes with the Dancer’s spell casting and causes her to lose AC bonus, flurry of blows, and fast movement abilities.
AC Bonus: The Dancer adds her Cha Modifier to her AC

Skill Points at 1st level: (4+ Int Modifier) x4
Skill Points at each additional level:4+ Int Modifier
Class Skills: Balance, climb, Concentration, Craft, Escape Artist, Hide, Jump, Listen, Move Silently, Perform, Profession, Sleight of Hand, Spot, Tumble
The Dancer has unarmed strike, and flurry of blows exactly like the Monk. The Ki-strike ability, however, only reaches magical type. The fast movement functions similar to the Barbarian ability (+10 bonus to speed when not in armor and not carry heavy load).
A Dancer's caster abilities are similar to a bard (Charisma based, spells known and spells cast same as the Bard) except that all Dancer spells must have a somatic component instead of a verbal.
