    The cotillion was a social dance popular in 18th century Europe and America originally performed by four couples in a square formation. It evolved into an elaborate concert dance rehearsed by trained dancers. Participants exchanged partners within the formation, which included circles and smaller rings. Cotillions are now classes that teach youth social etiquette, respect, and morals through dance, and provide a social event for high schoolers to practice manners.

    Cotillion de Honor

    The cotillion (also cotillon or "French country dance") is a social


    dance, popular in 18th-century Europe and America. Originally for
    four couples in square formation, it was a courtly version of an
    English country dance. It became so elaborate that it was
    sometimes presented as a concert dance performed by trained
    and rehearsed dancers.
    Participants exchanged partners within the formation network of
    the dance. "Changes" included the "Great Ring", a simple circle
    dance with which the dance often began, as well as smaller
    Ladies' and Gentlemen's rings, top and bottom and sides rings,
    and chains.
    Cotillions are also used as classes to teach social etiquette,
    respect, and common morals for the younger ages. Today,
    cotillions are for high schoolers as a chance to teach manners and
    etiquette, and also are a time to socialize with friends at after
    parties.
