Ballroom dancing
I learnt that there are many types of dances that link to Ballroom dancing like Tango, Jive, Salsa, and ChaCha. Ballroom dancing is all about flashy costumes and make up. You have to be fit and learn complicated dance skills, such as turns and dips. There are two different types of tango, the American Tango and the International Tango. Tango came from Argentina and made its way to Europe and gained popularity in Paris. As the European dancers enjoyed the music and the passion of the dance, they began to inject their own culture, style and technique. In an effort to teach a standardized version of Tango, the English eventually codified their own version of Tango for instruction in dance schools and for preformance in competitions in 1922.
