I looked it up and I found that the Arapaho traditionally danced the 'Sun Dance'.

Wikipedia's definition of the Arapaho Sun Dance is:

'The Arapaho Sun Dance, performed in the summer when the Arapaho bands come together for the occasion, is a ceremony performed in order to guide warriors on a Vision_(religion), receiving a guardian spirit. The vision is inspired by intense self-torture.'

I'm not sure if this is what you wanted but I hope it helps.

What dance type did the nez perces tribe do?

A distinction has to be made between historic (meaning 19th century and earlier) dances and rituals and modern (meaning reservation era and afterwards) dances. Historic dances included the winter Guardian Spirit Dance, which was a ritual mainly for young men who had recently received a sacred vision and an associated protector spirit. The Prophet Dance was an unusual ritual where a circle of dancers was led by a medicine man who reached a trance-like state in which he could see the future. There were also war dances, honour (praise) dances, owl or round dances, prairie chicken dances, victory song dances and women's dances. Since the reservation era the Nez Perce have also adopted many "powwow" dances from other tribes - grass dance, jingle dance and so on.
