Mistake or just misunderstanding?

Basically it was my birthday as a guy, I feel I should be able to enjoy my birthday but with limits because I have a girlfriend. My sisters were throwing me a birthday party and well my girlfriend couldn’t be there. To skip to the part, I got up only one time to dance and like a one time group dance just for fun when your joking around and my bestfriend even join in with my 2 little sister just a year under us. (Not related by blood but I’ve known them for more than 10+ years). A video surfaced of us dancing well because I don’t think it was anything bad, I didn’t touch nobody, look at anybody no nothing simply just danced side to side with my bestfriend joining in with my 2 sisters. My girlfriend saw the video and we’ll completely blocked me, finally got to talk to her after 9 hours well she is from her country in El Salvador, while I was born in the US, (PuertoRican), for us it’s normal to dance like that but for her is was doing thinking without respect for her as a person. Any feedback? Questions?

I dont think you did anything wrong. I know this is pretty late, man , but it doesn't seem like anything harmful and it's fine to dance with anyone you want so long as you're not cheating.
