The Foxtrot is an early twentieth-century American dance that evolved from the one-step, two-step, and syncopated ragtime dances (Norton). It was popularized in the United States in 1914 by dancers Vernon and Irene Castle, and it is thought to be named after Harry Fox, an entertainer (Bedinghaus).
Intermediate
Familiar with both rhythms and patterns as well as the technique that comes with the genre. The level will both try to improve on the execution of fairly basic material, but also provide slightly more challenging material.
Beginners
These classes are designed for beginners and will have you on your feet in no time! Many of our dancers love taking group classes, as it gives them the opportunity to learn new patterns and perfect familiar ones.
