Sephardic dance?



Just wondering, is there anyone who has done research on the dances of Jews of 
Sephardic origin; i.e., how do/did Jewish dances in places like Morrocco or 
Salonika differ or resemble the dances of the surrounding culture?

I've never come across these sorts of dances--only Israeli dances that utilize 
Sephardic melodies but don't attempt to show the actual dances of Sephardic 
Jews.  I know there are performing troupes but haven't had the opportunity to 
see any of them out here.
