What is Social Dancing?
"Couples Dancing"
is making a big comeback with all age groups. Moving to music is natural and therapeutic. Everyday dancing is enjoyed by millions of people. Dancing for fun whether it is Ballroom, Jive, Tango or Salsa is more popular than people realise. They enjoy the music, meeting people, having a chat and a few dances. Just like going to any club but with a difference. We dance in two's to a wider variety of music. Forget about "Come Dancing" or competitive dancing. This is Social Dancing capturing the social graces.
What types of Dancing?
There are Social Dances where you can:
Foxtrot, Waltz, Cha Cha, Rumba, Quickstep, Jive, Samba.
As well as LeRoc, Rock'n'Roll, West Coast Swing, Jitterbug, Lindy Hop.
And Salsa, Mambo, Merengue plus Argentine Tango.
Even Old Time and Modern Sequence. And there's more! Much more!!
Where can I learn?
For those who want to learn there are dance classes and courses in all kinds of dances held in halls and studios everywhere.
You do not need a partner to walk into a class or studio to start to learn. Many classes, especially in Jive and Salsa, insist that you do not need a partner and there are often more men than ladies!!!

We started Dance Dairy in 1993 so that "Social Couples Dancing" could be promoted at a time when many people thought "couples dancing" meant dressing up in tail suits and sparkly dresses and having a number on your back (that is competition dancing or dancesport). We at Dance Diary promote
Social Dancing making no distinction between the various styles of dancing from Sequence to Salsa. In the last decade attitudes within the profession have changed and Social dancing of all styles is recognised as an expanding social pastime and important to the whole world of dance.If you are a teacher, organiser, promoter, writer, dancer who wishes to contribute or advertise in our magazine contact us NOW!
