  1. Dancing Standard and Latin

  2. STANDARD LATIN DIFFERENT TYPE OF DANCE

  3. In an effort to teach a standardized version of the tango, the English eventually codified their own version of tango for instruction in dance schools and for performance in competitions in 1922. The resulting style was referred to as English style, but eventually took on the name International style, as this became the competitive ballroom version practiced around the world. TANGO

  4. Waltz is one of the five dances in the Standard (or Modern) category of the International Style ballroom dances. It was previously referred to as Slow Waltz or English Waltz. • It is a waltz dance and danced to slow, preferably 28-30 bars per minute (84-90 beats per minute),waltz music. Preferably, the 1st beat of a measure to be accented. Waltz music is in 3/4 time. • Most of the basic figures have 1 step per 1 beat, i.e. 3 steps per measure. Advanced figures may have 4-6 steps per measure, and this, coupled with various turns, makes the dance very dynamic despite the relatively slow tempo. At the same time, advanced dancers often use slow steps and elegant poses to create contrast (sometimes referred to as "light and shade"). • Waltz is usually the first dance in the Dancesport competitions in the "Standard" category.

  5. Foxtrot • The Standard Foxtrot, or Slow Foxtrot, is often thought of as the most difficult dance to do properly. It is characterized by very smooth long strides that make the couple appear as if they are floating on air. The long walking movements involve a subtle rise & fall action, accompanied by leg and body swing. Turning movements are similar to Waltz, but with a more moderate rise and fall, and more length-wise action. The Standard Foxtrot is both a competition dance and a social dance and is the type of Foxtrot best suited for serious social dancers. The tempo of Standard Foxtrot music is 28-30 BPM. FOXTROT

  6. Viennese Waltz • The Viennese Waltz is known for its graceful turns across the floor. Because of the speed of this dance it is not as complicated as the slower Standard or English Waltz. The Viennese Waltz is both a competition dance and a social dance and is the type of Viennese Waltz best suited for social dancing. The tempo of Viennese Waltz music is 58-60 BPM. VIENNESE WALTZ

  7. Quickstep • The Quickstep is the fastest of the ballroom dances. It is known for lots of hops, skips, jumps, and fast footwork. The Quickstep is both a social dance and a competition dance. The tempo of Quickstep music is 50-52 BPM. QUICKSTEP

  8. Cha Cha • Cha Cha is a rhythmical Latin dance which started out as a modified form of Mambo. It's fun, energetic, sexy, and flirtatious. It is easily distinguished from other dances by its unique timing. The Cha Cha is both a social dance and a competition dance. The tempo of Cha Cha music is 30-32 BPM. CHA CHA

  9. Samba • Samba is a very rhythmical dance where the rhythm of the music is expressed in the whole body, rather than just in the feet and the hips. The Samba is both a social dance and a competition dance. The tempo of Samba music is 48-52 BPM. SAMBA

  10. Rumba • The Rumba is both a social dance and a competition dance. The tempo of Rumba music is 25-27 BPM. • The American Rumba is similar to the Latin Rumba. It uses many of the same figures. There are two different versions of the timing used to dance the American Rumba, which can make it confusing if you have learned one version and your partner has learned the other. Like the American Cha Cha, it uses delayed hip action rather than direct hip action. The tempo of American Rumba music is 32-36 BPM. RUMBA

  11. Paso Doble • The Paso Doble is primarily danced in competitions with lots of showy movements and flashy arms. Although the beginning level figures are quite simple and are appropriate for social dancing, it is only danced as a social dance in a few places. The tempo of Paso Doble music is 60-62 BPM. PASO DOBLE

  12. Jive • The Jive is primarily a competition dance that somewhat resembles East Coast Swing. It has a Latin leg action that is quite different from the East Coast Swing. Although the Jive is an excellent social dance, what you normally see on the social dance floor is East Coast Swing. The tempo of Jive music is 42-46 BPM. JIVE

  13. JOJIE LEPON Dance  To move with measured steps, or to a musical accompaniment to go through, either alone or in company with others, with a regulated succession of movements,(commonly) to a sound of music; to trip or leap rhythmically.
