Ballroom dancing can best be described as two people dancing as one on the dance floor. {One thing that can be said of ballroom dance is that no one can really agree on a specific definition.} Yes, there are those who try to confine it to several specific steps and patterns, but for the true ballroom conasseur, the beauty of ballroom lies in its constant change and development, and the wonderful interaction people have between each other when they dance. New dances and variations {continue to be added}. have been added throughout the years since the Waltz came about in the early nineteenth century. The Fox Trot and Tango and  were introduced in the early twentieth century. The 50’s saw new variations of the Swing with the birth of rock-n-roll. The 70’s hustled in an era of disco and also a passion for country dancing with dances like the Country Two-Step. And the 90’s has seen a renewed interest in couples dancing,  Salsa dancing and even more country dancing with the advent of more and more  line dances,  Debate arises concerning these latter social dances as to whether they are legitimately ballroom or not. But this is something for you to decide!

Ballroom dance is also known as social danceing because it encourages social interaction between dance partners.

Social dance classes are taught on virtually all junior high, high school and college campuses throughout the United States and draw hundreds of students each semester.

The principles learned in ballroom dancing can be applied to any type of music, whether you listen to and move to classical waltzes, disco, or rock. This is because ballroom dancing follows {strict}  the tempo of the music. For the beginning dancer, this means that the music follows an even pattern of beats -you can't get lost!!!. The two main types of music you will be dancing to will either be, basically, slow or fast and in what musicians call in 3/4 or 4/4 time. More on that later! Suffice it to say, you’ll be amazed at how many of your favorite songs are perfect for dancing to a Waltz,  a Fox Trot, a Swing, or a Cha-Cha.
