Foxtrot Dance –Ballroom Dancing DVD

Perhaps the first thing we need to understand with the foxtrot is the rhythm of this particular dance. It is danced with a slow-slow-quick-quick, or slow-quick-quick tempo. The slow steps are stretched out and more graceful, and the quick steps are the short and energetic steps. It is vital that the dancer understands the music he or she will be dancing to to be able to pull off the foxtrot successfully.

Foxtrot Dance or Waltz? The foxtrot is a lot like the waltz. Be prepared to travel the length of the dance floor, often in a counter clockwise fashion. Foxtrot also share the waltz’s erect posture, as well as the rise and fall movements that come in traveling dances. When the foxtrot is danced in a faster tempo, it becomes the Quickstep. The swing and the jitterbug are also very similar to the foxtrot. It might be a little challenging for a beginner to take on the foxtrot dance, but it is not impossible. You need to equip yourself with the right tools to help you reach your goals, one of this is to get yourself a fantastic ballroom dancing DVD to teach you what to do.
