Ballroom Dance - Dance Saturday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,

Ballroom dance is a popular form of dance that is performed alongside a partner. Many enjoy this style of dance socially or competitively all over the world. Many who enjoy it competitively perform it at well renowned ballroom theatres like Blackpool and Sadler's Wells or compete in world championships. Others who enjoy it as a way to socialise and to improve a hobby, take part in lessons in their free time. There are many types of ballroom and Latin dance like: Waltz, Jazz, Jive, Rumba, Cha-Cha, Paso doble, Tango, Samba, Salsa, Foxtrot and Quickstep. The smoothest dance out of all of these is the waltz because of its characteristic rise and fall movements. Due to this, it is often performed as the first dance at weddings or it can often be seen gracing the floor at many performances. This can be quite a contrast to the intensity of the tango and paso doble and the upbeat feel of the cha-cha and samba. However, the most contrasting is jazz because of its characteristically turned in knees, Jazz hands, and kicks and leaps. This is not seen in the quickstep or foxtrot, that are very similar to the waltz. All of these dances can be found to be enjoyed in popular TV shows like Strictly Come Dancing and Dancing With The Stars, which many aspiring ballroom dancers, enjoy watching.
