What I Need to Know
Social dancing like any other dance forms, continues to evolve and influence
human beings who love using movement to interact with each other.
Social/ballroom dance is usually performed with a partner and in groups or
as a community activity for fun and enjoyment. They may also have
ceremonial, competitive and erotic functions. Standard and Latin dances are
both types of social/ballroom dancing that offers numerous physical, mental
and social health benefits.
In this module, we will discuss the history, nature, characteristics, and basic
movements of the different styles of social/ballroom dances that can be
considered moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). As you dance, you
sweat as you generate heat, thereby loosing body fluids. This is a normal
reaction in which the body cools naturally. This loose of fluid, however can
lead to dehydration which may lead to hypothermia and hyperthermia where
there is an increase or decrease of heat production of body temperature.
Pushing yourself too hard during physical activity may also cause
overexertion leading to dizziness, feeling faint and lightheadedness. These
may affect dancing performance and the over-all health status will be at stake.
At the end of this module, you will engage dancing social/ballroom dance as
MVPA. You will be given activities to display and enhance your skills in
social/ballroom dancing while taking into considerations some personal
safety protocols in order to avoid dehydration, overexertion, hypothermia and
hyperthermia.
The module is divided into three lessons, namely:

 Lesson 1 – Standard Ballroom Dances
 Lesson 2 – Latin Ballroom Dances
 Lesson 3 – Hydration and Overexertion in Dancing
After going through this module, you are expected to:

1. discuss the nature of the different styles of social/ballroom dances;
2. observe personal safety protocol to avoid dehydration, overexertion,
hypo-and hyperthermia during MVPA participation; and
3. engage in moderate to vigorous physical activities (MVPA’s) for at least
60 minutes most days of the week in a variety of settings in and-out-of-
school.

What is It
Lesson
Standard Ballroom Dances
1
Brief History, Nature and Characteristics
Standard ballroom dances are smooth, flowing ballroom dances that move
around the entire dance floor in a counterclockwise movement. The
international Standard and International Latin techniques were codified by
the Imperial Society of Teacher of Dance (ISTD) to come up with a unified
syllabus for all those interested in learning ballroom dancing. These includes
Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, and Quick Step.
 Foxtrot
 Was named after an American performer Harry Fox, which was
premiered in 1914.
 It is an elegant dance whose objective is to travel smoothly around
the dance floor.
 The time signature is 4/4 with the first and third beats accented.
 “Slow” count = 2 beats. “Quick count = 1 beat.
 Counting in beats and bars: 1 2 3 4, 2 2 3 4, 3 2 3 4, 4 2 3 4, etc.
6
 Waltz
 Was introduced in England in 1874 but it was in 1922 that it became
as fashionable as Tango. Waltz’s steps have already undergone
change and improvements as well and as a result of this, many more
variations became possible. It is also considered by some as “mother
of present-day dances” and the “backbone dance” of the ballroom.
 It is a smooth, progressive dance that travels around the line of
dance, characterized by its “rise and fall” action.
 The time signature is 3/4 with the first beat accented.
 Each step = 1 beat.
 Counting in beats and bars: 1 2 3, 2 2 3, 3 2 3, 4 2 3, etc.
 Tango
 Was first danced in Europe before World War I. The word “tango”
may be an African term for “closed space” or “reserved ground,” or it
may be from the Latin verb tanguere which mean “to touch”. It
originates from Buenos Aires (Argentina) where it was first danced
in “Barrio de Las Rana”, the ghetto of Buenos Aires.
 It is a sensual ballroom dance that originated in South America
during the early 20th century.
 The time signature is 2/4 with both beats accented.
 “Slow” count = 1 beat. “Quick” count = 1/2 beat.
 Counting in beats and bars: 1 2, 1 and 2, etc.
 Quick Step
 Was developed during World War I in New York and became popular
in ballrooms. It has a common origin as that of the Foxtrot.
 It is an up-and-down, rise-and-fall swinging motion performed at a
fast pace. Music used is usually jazz or swing with a brisk tempo. It
is little faster than brisk walking, although it seems much faster for
beginners.
 The time signature is 4/4 with the first and third beats accented.
 “Slow” count = 2 beats. “Quick” count = 1 beat.
 Counting in beats and bars: 1 2 3 4, 2 2 3 4, 3 2 3 4, 4 2 3 4, etc.

Latin Ballroom Dances

Brief History, Nature and Characteristics
Latin ballroom dances are energetic dances which reflect the shift in rhythm
of the music being danced to. Latin dance has a rich cultural history rooted
in the traditional dances of native peoples of Latin America. Formal Latin
dances includes Cha-cha-cha, Jive, Samba and Rumba.
 Cha-cha-cha
 Is a newcomer in Latin American dances with origin only in the fifties
and became popular shortly after mambo was introduced.
 It is passionate, energetic, lively and a flirtatious dance.
 The time signature is 4/4 with accented beat on the first and fourth
of each bar.
 Count 2 = 1 beat; Count 3 = 1 beat; Count 4 = half beat
 Counting in beats and bars: 2 3 4 and 1, etc.
 Jive
 Was developed from the dance “jitterbug” from America. After the
origination of the jive dance in the United States, it slowly spread to
the European countries and in the United Kingdom.
 A lively style of dance popular especially in the 1940s and 1950s,
performed to swing music or rock and roll.

Lesson
Hydration and Overexertion in Dancing
3
Dehydration, overexertion, hypo-and hyperthermia maybe experienced during

participation to moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Dancers sweat
as they generate heat during training, rehearsal, and performance. This is
how the body cools itself. This loss of fluid, however, can lead to dehydration,
resulting in dizziness, lack of energy, inability to concentrate, sore muscles,
and lackluster performance. This loose of fluid, however can lead to
dehydration which may lead to hypothermia and hyperthermia where there is
an increase or decrease of heat production of body temperature. Pushing
yourself too hard during physical activity may also cause overexertion leading
to dizziness, feeling faint and lightheadedness. These may affect your dancing
performance and your over-all health status will be at stake. Observing some
safety protocols can help avoid dehydration, overexertion, hypo-and
hyperthermia.
Dehydration and Hydration
Dehydration is caused by not drinking enough fluid or by losing more fluid

than you take in. Fluid is lost through sweat, tears, vomiting, urine or
diarrhea. The severity of dehydration can depend on a number of factors, such
as climate, level of physical activity and diet. Consider the following safety
protocols to avoid dehydration:
 Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Drinking enough water

each day is crucial for many reasons:
1. to regulate body temperature;
2. to keep joints lubricated;
3. to prevent infections;
4. to deliver nutrients to cells; and
5. to keep organs functioning properly.
 Eat foods with high amounts of water like fruits and vegetables.
 Avoid or limit drinks with caffeine like coffee, teas and soft drinks.
 Avoid or limit drinks with alcohol.
Physical activity therefore results in increased water requirements that

parallel sweat losses. If these hydration needs for exercise are not met, the
body can enter a state of dehydration. Dehydration during physical activity is
recognized as having a detrimental effect. Staying well hydrated: before,
during and after exercise is very important.
3
Overexertion
Overexertion occurs when people push themselves too hard during physical
activity. Signs of overexertion includes dizziness, and feeling faint. Feeling
dizzy after a moderate to vigorous physical activity is a common occurrence.
Considering safety protocols in order to avoid dizziness as a result to
overexertion is to:
 cool down and rest for a few minutes;
 sit down and place the head between the knees to increases blood
flow to the brain;
 practice deep breathing for several minutes, making sure to inhale and
exhale slowly;
 stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids before, during, and after
physical activity;
 eat something (a snack) of complex carbohydrates and lean proteins (an
hour or so before a workout is advisable);
 increase the intensity of workouts gradually and avoid pushing the body
too hard;
 quit smoking.
Hyperthermia and Hypothermia

Hyperthermia and Hypothermia are both conditions that may occur when
the body can no longer release enough of its heat to maintain a normal
temperature. The body has different coping mechanisms to get rid of excess
body heat, largely breathing, sweating, and increasing blood flow to the
surface of the skin. Hyperthermia differs from fever to which the body's
temperature set point remains unchanged. The opposite is hypothermia,
which occurs when the temperature drops below that required to maintain
normal metabolism. Heat exhaustion is one of the more serious stages of
hyperthermia. Any activity that involves exercise in warm, and humid
environments increases the risk of this condition. Some safety protocols may
help prevent this condition such as:
 getting out of the cold, wind, or rain if possible,
 adding warm layers of clothing;
 wearing loose clothing in multiple layers. To prevent yourself from
sweating and cooling down too much, remove a layer if you get hot.
Looser clothing retains heat well, but your sleeves should fit snugly at
the wrists.
 eating enough food with enough source of carbohydrates;
 drinking fluids;
 moving your body to help warm your core;
 preventing more serious problems, take action as soon as you notice
early signs of the condition;

What I Have Learned
1. Ballroom dancing is a formal social dancing for couples, where one

person leads and the other follows the steps. It is popular both as a
recreational (social) and competitive (dancesport) activity. The word
“ball” is from the Latin word ballare, which means dance.
2. There are two main types of ballroom dance, the Standard and Latin.
The following are its fundamental characteristics that make up
ballroom dance/dancesports as a dance style:
 Posture- enables a dancer to stand out on the floor, which shows
sophistication and confidence.
 Timing- dancing on time with the music.
 Line- the stretching of the body.
 Hold- the correct position of the body with the partner in closed
position.
 Poise- the stretch of the woman’s body upwards and outwards and
leftwards into the man’s right arm to achieve balance and connection
with his frame, as well as to project outwards to the audience.
 Togetherness- dancing of two people as one on the dance floor.
 Musicality and expression- the basic characterization of the
dance with the particular music being played and the
choreographic adherence to musical phrasings and accents.
 Presentation- how the couple presents their dancing to the
audience as well as the proper costuming and grooming.
 Power- the energy that is controlled and not wild.
 Foot and leg action- the use of lower extremities that creates
balance, beauty and strength.
 Shape- the combination of turn and sway to create a look or a
position.
 Lead and follow- the non-verbal communication of the man and
lady through shape, visual, and body weight.
 Floorcraft- the ability to avoid bumping into other couples and
continue dancing without pause when boxed in.
 Intangibles- how a couple “look” together in performing their
dances.
3. Basic terminologies include the following:
 Alignment- the position of the feet in relation to the room.
 Footwork – refers to the part of the foot in contact with the floor.
 Timing- the synchronization of actions with the beat of the music.
3
 Line of dance (LOD) – the counter clockwise direction around the
dance floor.
 Wall- means the direction perpendicular to the LOD pointing
towards the wall of the room (imaginary).
 Center- means the direction perpendicular to the LOD pointing
towards the center of the room.
 Open facing position- a variation of open position where gentleman
and lady stand apart, facing each other, usually with a one-or two-
hand connection.
 Outside partner position- a variation of the closed position where
the tracking of the gentleman and lady’s feet are slightly offset.
 Promenade position- a V-shaped dance position where both
gentleman and lady move forward and in the same direction,
toward the open end of the “V”.
 Closed position- the normal hold where couple stand facing each
other in body contact slightly offset to the left. In Latin dances,
couple stand few inches apart, either directly in front of each other
or very slightly offset.
 Open position- any dance position where a gentleman and a lady
stand apart or slightly apart, without taking a closed position dance
hold.
