it took me so long to get it, but of course buffy summers goes an extra mile when fighting monsters, of course she does backflips, high jumps and pirouettes. she did cheerleading, she liked ice skating, and now she just doesn`t have neither time nor opportunity to do these things that she enjoyed to do as a normal girl, so of course she would involve in her fighting style all the elements she loves to still feel conected to the girl she was (and she still is that girl). of course she is dancing.
As an adult, I took some time to revisit martial arts I had enjoyed as a kid, and I can confirm that after spending your childhood years doing performance arts as your primary athletic activities, any athletic pursuit becomes a little bit of a dance. Your body and your heart want to put your own, literal, spin on the techniques. There will always be a part of you that is dancing.
