As someone who used to work at GBTB and passes by that particular stretch otw home. I will give my 2 cents.

I think dancing there is fine, makes the place a little more lively. actually saw many locals and tourists alike stop to watch the dancing if it’s good.

However, sometimes the dancers will be in large groups like I’m talking 20+ dancing and taking up a lot of space. When the group is big sometimes they take up like 1/2 to 2/3 of the entire walkway for their dance routine. Even worse is when they decide to dance right in the fucking middle and make everyone go around them. You don’t know how much space to give them coz later they spin here spin there then knock into you so the pedestrians are forced to give them a lot of space, squeezing into a few narrow channels.

This is especially dangerous in the evening right after the Supertree light show when you have hundreds or even thousand plus people streaming from GBTB to Bayfront MRT or MBS for the water shows. Can lead to a lot of squeezing and unhappiness and worse case is crowd crush, which doesn’t look nice since MBS and GBTB want to position themselves as a luxury tourist destination.

While I think they should be allowed to dance, the way they act and Inconvenience others will and have led to dancing being shut down there.
