Formal partner movement
Ballroom dance refers to any of various formal partner dances performed in a ballroom setting, including the waltz, foxtrot, tango, and quickstep.
These dances follow established steps and patterns, with partners moving together across the floor in close or open hold.
Ballroom dancing exists both as social recreation and as a competitive sport with standardized categories and judging criteria.
They met at a ballroom dance class and have been partners ever since.
