What is Foxtrot?
Many people mistakenly think that Foxtrot is a difficult dance to learn , but this is usually because they are thinking of more complicated styles of Foxtrot such as International Style and American Silver and Gold Styles, that are used mainly in performances and competitions. Basic social Foxtrot (sometimes referred to as American Bronze Style) is fun and simple to learn, an excellent dance for beginners.

What is Foxtrot?
The foxtrot is relatively simple and very versatile, giving beginners a great foundation to work with. It can be danced at slow, medium or fast tempos, making it easy to move gracefully across the floor for social dancers of all skill levels.
The dance was named after vaudeville performer Harry Fox, and it quickly pushed aside the other "trots" popular in the ragtime era. The American Smooth version danced in competitions is slower, and was made popular by Fred Astaire. The International Standard foxtrot, slower still, is sometimes called the "slow foxtrot" and was developed in England.
