No, I haven't heard of it. Let alone I never heard of in in relation to DANCING (This is dancing category!). Dancers are pretty healthy crowd, you see. They are not afraid that they might be attacked by toilets running from the bathroom to the dance floor.
One cat I know have had it. What happened - the kitty was exploring the bathroom, the lid was open. He stepped on the toilet seat and the lid fell on him. The poor thing is really scard of the toilet now. I guess he has real toliet fobia.

Parcopresis - An inability to defecate when other people are perceived or likely to be around (e.g. in the same public toilet, the same house or the same building).” This inability limits the sufferer to being able to defecate only in a limited number of ‘safe’ places thus restricting their lifestyle. The level of restriction varies depending on the severity of each sufferer’s condition but in extreme cases it can force people to give up their jobs, avoid holidays they would love to take, and generally dictate and limit most aspects of their lives. A medical description is ‘Psychogenic Faecal Retention’. It affects both men and women, of all ages and backgrounds; it is a form of toilet phobia. The term “Parcopresis” has been coined by the creators of this website since, as far as we know, no medical term has previously existed for it until now. Another name for it is “Shy Bowel Syndrome”. Parcopresis is the faecal equivalent of paruresis (psychogenic urinary retention).

My friend has toilet phobia and an amazing bladder. She won't use any toilet other than her home toilet. She works full time and attends many out of hours activities and WAITS till she gets home to go to the toilet. She's 24 and has been doing it all her life so far with very few consequences! Amazing!

Actually, I think my house mate may have this!!!
She will NOT use a public toilet in any situation because she's worried that if her butt even hovers over the seat she may catch some disease!
I have even known her to take a dump outside with no tissue rather that use a toilet not her own!
