My understanding is that the "liturgy" is the order of events, or the program or order of service - a church program or service. A Liturgical dancer, then, dances (but does not "perform" as in entertaining) as an integral part of this service or program. The liturgical dancer can dance at the beginning of service to set the atmosphere, as part of or as the praise and worship portion of the program, as the welcome, the prayer, the Scripture, or even the message, the benediction -- or all of the above. In short, the liturgical dancer can dance any part of the liturgy (i.e., the program, the order of the worship service). To take it a step further, the liturgical dancer can be part of the music and fine arts ministry, or he or she can be the preacher! I experienced an awesome service in a church in Georgia in early September in which the Minister of Music, who is also the Minister or Director of Dance, led the praise and worship dancers at the start of the service, then lead the song, played the piano, and preached the sermon!
