What is Ballroom dancing?

Ballroom dancing

This dance form is an example of a partnered dance. In classes a choreographed sequence is generally taught, but in practice it is an improvised dance. Groups of dancers may follow a choreographed sequence for demonstrations and exhibitions.

It has pre-defined steps following strict tempo music ie waltz, quickstep, foxtrot.

Social dances are often called "tea dances" because they are organised during the day when tea is served.
