Well, it seams more as if they do pavane on the steps of XV c. ballo. I mean sempio and dopio. Even they do not only rising up, but also body position(same sholder back, oposit sholde front). It is more typical for XV c. dances, but not the renaissance ones as pavana is... Hm..

Umm...the academic answer is consistent with the practical answer of "that's how bodies look when they move the way the directions tell you to," The basic step pattern of simples (step-step/slight rise) and doubles (step-step-step-step/slight rise) mean that the slight rises (done by putting the gesture foot at half-toe beside the standing foot and pushing up slightly, then lowering) cause the body to go up and down slightly. You can see published versions in Arbeau/Sutton, Carozo, Negri, etc.

@dellaroux hi. Good, academic answer. I still want to know why people bob up and down. I think it's because everybody does it.

@lilythepink123 Sorry, silly me! I meant with the lower part of the body of course.
-
@bouffon1 Most dance steps at that time were executed only with the upper part of the body - not least because the women's corsets and the men's tight clothing prevented anything else!

Actually, the "bobbing" shouldn't be so obvious or so articulated; the descriptions of the proper way to do a pavane suggest undulation rather than popcorn. But yes, it is fitted to the music properly, and any sense that it isn't is simply due to differences in contemporary aesthetics about music and dance, not an error on the reconstructionist's part. The costumes are very well done, by the way!

@melajame where is it written that you bob up and down? Everybody does it , I know. Really doesn't fit in with the music.

It's by Claude Gervaise, unfortunately I don't know the exact song title.
