 Ballroom

• A ballroom or ballhall is a large

room inside a building, the
primary purpose of which is
holding large formal parties called
balls. Traditionally, most balls
were held in private residences;
many mansions and palaces,
especially historic mansions and
palaces, contain one or more
ballrooms.
Example
• Ballroom dance may refer, at its widest
definition, to almost any recreational
dance with a partner. However, with the
emergence of dance competition (now
known as Dancesport), two principal
schools have emerged and the term is
used more narrowly to refer to the
dances recognized by those schools.
Ballroom Dance sport
 Definitions and history
• The term 'ballroom dancing' is derived
from the word ball which in turn
originates from the Latin word ballare
which means 'to dance' (a ball-room
being a large room specially designed
for such dances). In times past,
ballroom dancing was social dancing for
the privileged, leaving folk dancing for
the lower classes.
 Definitions and history
• These boundaries have since become blurred.
The definition of ballroom dance also depends
on the era: balls have featured popular dances
of the day such as the Minuet, Quadrille,
Polonaise, Polka, Mazurka, and others, which
are now considered to be historical dances.
 19th century
• The waltz with its modern hold took root in England in
about 1812; in 1819 Carl Maria von Weber wrote
Invitation to the Dance, which marked the adoption of the
waltz form into the sphere of absolute music. The dance
was initially met with tremendous opposition due to the
semblance of impropriety associated with the closed hold,
though the stance gradually softened. In the 1840s several
new dances made their appearance in the ballroom,
including the polka, mazurka, and the Schottische. In the
meantime a strong tendency emerged to drop all
'decorative' steps such as entrechats and ronds de jambes
that had found a place in the Quadrilles and other dances.

 Early 20th century
• Modern ballroom dance has its roots
early in the 20th century, when several
different things happened more or less
at the same time. The first was a
movement away from the sequence
dances towards dances where the
couples moved independently. This had
been pre-figured by the waltz, which had
already made this transition.
 20th century
• The second was a wave of popular music, such as
jazz. Since dance is to a large extent tied to music,
this led to a burst of newly invented dances. There
were many dance crazes in the period 1910–1930.

• The third event was a concerted effort to

transform some of the dance crazes into dances
which could be taught to a wider dance public in
the U.S. and Europe.
 Competitive dancing
• In competitive ballroom, dancers are judged
by diverse criteria such as poise, the hold or
frame, posture, musicality and expression,
timing, body alignment and shape, floor
craft, foot and leg action, and presentation.
Judging in a performance-oriented sport is
inevitably subjective in nature, and
controversy and complaints by competitors
over judging placements are not uncommon.
• The scorekeepers—called scrutineers—
will tally the total number recalls
accumulated by each couple through
each round until the finals when the
Skating system is used to place each
couple by ordinals, typically 1–6,
though the number of couples in the
final may vary. Sometimes, up to 8
couples may be present on the floor
during the finals.
• Competitors dance at different
levels based on their ability and
experience. The levels are split into
two categories, syllabus and open.
The syllabus levels are
newcomer/pre-bronze, bronze,
silver, and gold—with gold the
highest syllabus level and
newcomer the lowest.
