Answer:

Dancing

Step-by-step explanation:

Technically, dancing is not necessarily banned by the bible (and puritans took their cues from the old testimonies).

But, the puritans believed that dancing tend to be associated with other social activities that lead to sins (hugging the opposite sex, revealing clothing, etc). Because of this, the puritans thought of it as taboo.
