Standard Dances
-the “smooth dances”. Standard dances are distinctive in that it emphasizes remaining in a closed dance position
1. Waltz- considered the mother of present day dances, the Waltz began in southern Germany in the 17th century.

2. Viennese Waltz- the famous ballrooms of Vienna popularized the faster version of waltz
-known for its rotational movement, which is simple and elegant.
3. Tango- from the gauchos of Argentina who wore chaps that hardened from the foam and sweat of the horse's body, causing
them to walk with flexed knees.
-No rise and fall in the steps. This should be a very level, flat dance. The legs are therefore always slightly flexed (i.e. the
knees should be slightly bent at all times).
4. Slow Foxtrot- it roots from the copying the act that Harry was putting on downstairs, leading them to refer to the dance as "Fox's
Trot.
- The timing here is very important. It should be: slow, quick, quick, slow. The dancers should drive off on the slow and
let the quicks take care of themselves. This makes it a very difficult dance.
5. Quickstep- this is a light, bright, twinkling and happy dance with tricky footwork. Quite sporty in its delivery as it is very springy
and fast paced. The basic feel is slow, quick, quick, slow, quick, quick.

Latin Dances
-the “rhythm dances”. Latin dances are distinctive in that the hip action is achieved after stepping onto a “straight leg.”
1. Samba- is an all-out party dance with origins from Brazil's Rio Carnival
-The major characteristic of the Samba is the vertical bounce action, more on hip movements.
2. Cha-Cha-Cha- is a Cuban-born dance, similar to the Mambo in style.
-on this dance after the basic movement of stepping forward or backward and shifting weight between feet, the Cha Cha
Cha adds a quick set of three steps.
3. Rumba- has its roots in the Cuban son
-consists of two quick steps and then a third slower step that takes two beats to execute
-has emphasized slow, romantic steps with a focus on hip movements.
4. Paso Doble. The Paso Doble on the competition floor should create a Spanish Bull Fighting atmosphere. The Paso Doble is the
dance for the Man.The woman's role varies depending on the interpretation of the dance. The woman can take the role of
the matador's cape, the bull or even the matador at different times within the dance. Characteristics of the Paso Doble
are the "Marching" flavor given to the steps and the cape movements creating the required tension between both dancers.
It is one of the only dances that is danced only in the ballroom world and is one of the most dramatic of the dances.
5. Jive- is a rhythmical and swinging dance which was influenced by the Boogie, Rock & Roll, African/American Swing and the
Lindy hop.-is one of the fastest dances and should show lots of kicks and flicks and twirling of the woman.
