About Partner Dancing
There are two main types of partner dancing: competition and social.
Competition Dancing
Competition dancing (also known as Dancesport) is simply dancing to compete against other dancers.
If you're serious about competition dancing, it is a big committment of time and money.
Social Dancing
Social Dancing is simply dancing for pleasure, for exercise or for a social occasion.
It's a great way to meet people and is suitable for people of all ages.
Many of the steps used in social dancing are used in competition dancing, but you don't need to perfect them and you don't need to wear fancy costumes (unless you want to).
