The Quickstep, with its roots in Ragtime and first danced by Caribbean and African dancers, was developed in the 1920s in suburban New York from a combination of Foxtrot , Charleston , Peabody , and the One-Step . Originally it was danced solo – away from the partner, but later became a partner dance. It was originally given the name “Quick Time Fox Trot” but was eventually changed to Quickstep. Although the quickstep was heavily influenced by the jazz culture of the period, it owes some of its movements to the equally popular Afro-Cuban and Latino dance crazes of the 1920s and 1930s. The dance traveled to England and was developed into the dance that we know today, and was standardized in 1927. Skip A Step on the Dance Floor with Quickstep Quickstep is a combination of walks and chasses in a basic form, but in an advanced stage, hops jumps & many syncopations are utilized. It is an elegant and glamorous dance and body contact is maintained throughout the dance.

Learn the most fundamental step of the Foxtrot. The men start with the left and do 2 walks forward, side step, and then close. The ladies start with their right foot and they do 2 walks back, a side step, and then close.

The Tango made its first appearance. It was instantly a hit with the dance-conscious public for its intriguing, asymmetrical, and sophisticated patterns which added a touch of romance to the country’s dance consciousness. The Tango has no clearly defined origin: it may have originated in Argentina, Brazil, Spain, or Mexico, but it clearly descended from an early Spanish folk dance, the Milonga, and bears traces of Moorish and Arabic ancestry.

Bachata originated in the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean during the early 20th century, and includes Indigenous, African, and European musical elements. It became popular in the rural neighborhoods of the island, but was censored almost to extinction during the Trujillo dictatorship (1930-1961) for being a “backward, lower art form for country people”.

Jive originated from a mix of popular American dances in the 1930s, including jitterbug, boogie-woogie, lindy hop, east coast swing, shag, and rock ’n’ roll. Over time, these diverse styles were grouped together under the umbrella term “jive.” In the 1940s, this fusion of dances was officially named “jive,” marking the birth of the dance as we know it today. The International Style Jive features a relaxed, springy movement, with advanced dancers incorporating plenty of flicks and kicks.

The Paso Doble (or pasodoble), in its classical form dates back many centuries and was originally intended for use at bullfights when the matador was victorious in the arena. The music adapted itself so beautifully to the dance that the villagers danced to the exciting, lively music for hours on end.

The Bolero is one of the most expressive dances: the use of arms and hands, legs and feet, as well as facial expression, all contribute to its beauty. With dramatic arm styling and smooth, gliding movement, it’s no surprise the graceful movements of Bolero feel romantic.

The Brazilian Samba was first introduced to the U.S. Dance Masters in 1929, it became an overnight sensation. Like many other Brazilian dances, the music is an amalgamation of African and Latin American rhythms that is adorned with expressive, melodic lines. In form, the Samba is a serenade; the repetition of its melody is continually interrupted by the strumming of a guitar or other stringed instruments.

Cha Cha is a dance of Cuban origin and derives its name from the rhythm developed by a syncopation of the fourth beat. Cha Cha gathers its flavor, rhythm, and charm from a derivation of three primary sources: the Mambo, Rumba, and indirectly, the Lindy (with each being danced to the same one-two-three triple step).

Rumba, or “ballroom-rumba,” is one of the ballroom dances which occurs in social dance and in international competitions. It is the slowest of the five competitive International Latin dances. This ballroom Rumba was derived from a Cuban rhythm and dance called the Bolero-Son.

West Coast Swing (or Western Swing) quickly gained popularity across the U.S. because of its sophisticated style and easy adaptation to contemporary rock music. A regional style popular on the West Coast of the U.S., the dance made a bid for national recognition in the late 50s and continues to grow in popularity in the 21st century.

Swing is Here to Stay. For many years, the better establishments frowned upon the wilder forms of Swing dancing because the acrobatics involved limited the number of people who could dance at one time. It is possible however, to do fine dancing in a relatively small area. There is no question that Swing is here to stay.
