    TWELVE TYPES OF BALLROOM DANCE

    The Cha Cha is a lively, flirtatious ballroom dance full of passion and energy. The classic "Cuban
    motion" gives the Cha Cha its unique style. Partners work together to synchronize each
    movement in perfect alignment.
    The Foxtrot is a ballroom dance that is lots of fun and simple to learn...an excellent dance for
    beginners. The Foxtrot is a smooth dance in which dancers make long, flowing movements
    across the floor.

    Jive is a ballroom dance style that originated in the United States from African-Americans. It is a
    lively form of Swing dance, and a variation of the Jitterbug.

    The Lindy Hop is the ballroom dance considered to be the father of all Swing dances. It is
    known for its unique, athletic style, and often contains aerial jumps, twists and flips

    The Mambo is one of the most sensual and emotional Latin American ballroom dances.
    Swaying hip movements, facial expressions, arm movements and holds all add to the sensuality
    of the dance

    The Paso Doble is one of the liveliest ballroom dances, originating in southern France. It is
    modeled after the sound, drama, and movement of the Spanish bullfight.

    The Quickstep is a quick version of the Foxtrot. It is a ballroom dance comprised of extremely
    quick stepping, syncopated feet rhythms, and runs of quick steps. The Quickstep is exciting to
    watch, but among the most difficult of all the ballroom dances.

    The Rumba is considered by many to be the most romantic and sensual of all Latin ballroom
    dances. It is often referred to as the "Grandfather of the Latin dances."

    Possibly the most popular of all Brazilian ballroom dances, the Samba is popular with young
    people as well as older generations. The Samba can be performed solo or with a partner.

    The Tango is one of the most fascinating of all ballroom dances. This sensual ballroom dance
    originated in South America in the early twentieth century.

    The Viennese Waltz is a quick rotating ballroom dance with a subtle rise and fall. It is
    considered by most to be one of the most difficult dances to learn. The simple and elegant
    rotational movement characterizes the Viennese Waltz.
    The Waltz is one of the smoothest ballroom dances. It is a progressive dance marked by long,
    flowing movements, continuous turns, and "rise and fall." The dance is so graceful and elegant,
    Waltz dancers appear to glide around the floor with almost no effort
    It was for some fifty years regarded as an ideal finale to a ball but was eclipsed in the early 19th
    century by the quadrille. It became so elaborate that it was sometimes presented as a concert
    dance performed by trained and rehearsed dancers. The later "German" cotillion included more
    couples as well as plays and games.
    Cotillion

    What is cotillion?
    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, the forerunner of the
    quadrilleand, in the United States, the square dance.
