Types of Dance Styles
Types of Dance Styles International Standard Ballroom Dances Ballroom Dance: Ballroom dancing is one of the most entertaining and elite styles of dancing. In the earlier days, ballroom dancewas only for the privileged class of people, the socialites if you must. This style of dancing with a partner, originated in Germany, but is now a popular act followed in varied dance styles. Today, the popularity of ballroom dance is evident, given the innumerable shows and competitions worldwide that revere dance, in all its form. This dance includes many other styles sub-categorized under this. There are many dance techniques that have been developed especially in America. The International Standard recognizes around 10 styles that belong to the category of ballroom dancing, whereas the American style has few forms that are different from those included under the International Standard. Tango: It definitely does take two to tango and this dance also belongs to the American Style category. Like all ballroom dancers, the male has to lead the female partner. The choreography of this dance is what sets it apart from other styles, varying between the International Standard, and that which is American. Waltz: The waltz is danced to melodic, slow music and is an equally beautiful dance form. The waltz is a graceful form of dance, that requires fluidity and delicate movement. When danced by the International Standard norms, this dance is performed more closely towards each other as compared to the American Style. Foxtrot: Foxtrot, as a dance style, gives a dancer flexibility to combine slow and fast dance steps together.

This dance, now known as “on 2” mambo, or salsa, for its relationship to the clave, is the first uniquely North American form of vernacular Latino dance on the East Coast. This paper traces the New York mambo’s develop- ment from its beginnings at the Palladium Ballroom through the salsa and hustle years and up to the present time. The current period is characterized by increasing growth, commercialization, codification, and a blending with other modern, urban dance genres such as hip-hop. [Key words: salsa, mambo, hustle, New York, Palladium, music, dance] [ 109 ] Hutchinson(v10).qxd 3/1/05 7:27 AM Page 110 While stepping on count one, two, or three may seem at first glance to be an unimportant detail, to New York dancers it makes a world of difference.

How Cuba Produces Some of the Best Ballet Dancers in the World by Noël Duan December 14, 2015 9:01 PM
http://news.yahoo.com/how-cuba-produces-some-of-the-best-ballet-dancers-020100947.html How Cuba Produces Some of the Best Ballet Dancers in the World By Noël Duan December 14, 2015 9:01 PM Recent graduates of the Ballet Nacional de Cuba School performing at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana in February 2015. (Photo: Getty Images) This story is part of a weeklong Yahoo series marking one year since the opening of relations between the United States and Cuba. Cuba is well known for many forms of dance, from the mambo and the tango to salsa, the cha- cha and the rumba. But only ballet enthusiasts know that the dance form is one of the country’s biggest cultural exports. In Cuba, ballet is just as popular as baseball, a sport where players from the Cuban national team regularly defect to the major leagues in the United States. Unlike in the United States, where ballet is generally considered highbrow art and Misty Copeland is the only ballerina with a household name, the Cuban government funds ballet training and subsidizes tickets to ballet performances. “Taxi drivers know who the principal dancers are,” Lester Tomé, a dance professor at Smith College and former dance critic in Cuba and Chile, tells Yahoo Beauty. Like Cuban baseball players, Cuban ballet dancers have made international marks around the world, from Xiomara Reyes, the recently retired principal dancer at New York City’s American Ballet Theatre to London’s English National Ballet ballet master Loipa Araújo, regarded as one of the “four jewels of Cuban ballet.” In September 2005, Erika Kinetz wrote in the New York Times that “training, especially Cuban training, has been a key driver of the Latinization of ballet,” an important note, considering that European ballet companies dominated the dance world for decades.

Jive and Swing Deserve a Little Care and Precision, Too by Harold & Meredith Sears
Jive and Swing deserve a little care and precision, too by Harold & Meredith Sears Jive and Swing are often considered to be almost synonymous. Jive is faster and Swing is more easy-going, but we can casually lump them both with Lindy, Jitterbug — it's all Rock-and-Roll. If we make these mental connections, we may develop a loose, devil-may-care attitude that tempts us to flail around any old way and to step just any old where. But looseness like that is going to be uncomfortable because Jive music is often fast. Even though Jive is meant to be an "up" and fun rhythm, we can't afford to be anarchic about it. We still need some control and precision. If you take too big a step, or if you step in the wrong place, you won't have much time to "fix" it, and that whole little sequence will end up feeling forced, rushed, off balance, even frantic. Consider the common Change Places Right to Left — 123a4; 1a2. We might be in closed position, man facing the wall with lead feet free. We both rock back to semi-closed position and then recover. Now we come to the two triples. How will we dance them: as a side chasse, or forward, back, in a cucaracha sort of way, or like a back hitch? We can do those triples randomly and just aim for where we need to be, but we likely won't be dancing together. First, let's think about making our steps relatively small.
