Couples Dancing
COUPLE DANCING, sounds like Partner dancing but does differ. It is often referred to as Freestyle and includes various distinctive types of dancing which can be spilt into two types, "Progressive" and "Slot" dances.
PROGRESSIVE DANCES - Two Step, Waltz and Polka, these dances actually progress round the outside of the dance floor (outside of the Partner Dancers)
SLOT DANCES - Cha Cha, West Coast Swing
and East Coast Swing are performed in small "slots" on
the dance floor, either end of the Line dancers, but inside
the Partner dancers.
