Isn't it the same here? That pubs / clubs needs a dance license?

As someone who has managed both a pub and, (de facto) a club, I should be able to answer that. I can't though. I don't think there is. But don't quote me.
The main one is alcohol licensing, keeping it and selling it for consumption on premises. Then you'll need a security license so you can have doorstaff. Used to be the case that you needed licensing to have a cigarette machine on site - but no longer. Think you need one for games machines. Then you'll need a PRS license from the music people to play songs and a PPL if you use the site as a live venue for music.That also covers things like playing visuals on screens which are usually made up of copyrighted images.
There are some things too to do with CCTV.
I think what differentiates not needing a license 'to dance' in a club is that it's not in front of an audience. I.e. I believe theatres and things that show dancing in front of customers that aren't dancing need a license as it's classed as regulated entertainment. Morris Dancing is noticeably exempt.

Most important is the Mob Licence.

The ship in soho has no dancing signs as I think they got done for it ages back, whether it's entirely serious or not I don't know

Dancing is not regulated, although it can become part of the pubs alcohol or entertainment licence.
If you had a cafe that didn't play live music, people could dance to their hearts content...
Not sure what happens if customers bring the music? Do you need an entertainment licence if someone brought a guitar into a pub and started playing?

When it started I was thinking along the lines of the "ashtray on a motorbike" joke. But it does plug into the "air delivery vest" so you are kept cool (or warm) inside your bike leathers. I suppose you can't run around with them open so it does have some merits. On the other hand, I am sure you can get protective gear with vents and all that, and motorbikes are moving which helps with cooling. Or on a cold day you could wear a parka on top of your leathers?
I mean, basically, this is so that you can still look the part in your leathers whatever the weather. But they don't figure with the fact that it looks like you are tied up to some sort of medical gadget.

If there are three or more musicians, you need a licence.

Interesting. A friend of mine got asked, quite harshly, to stop dancing in a pub by the landlady. She sat down, very upset, just to have someone explain to her that there is such a thing as a dance license for pubs.
