On the other hand, American Style, including &#8220;Exhibition&#8221; solo work, offers more freedom in choreography and embraces open and closed positions to give couples greater flexibility in their performances. While both styles demand technical proficiency, the American Style allows for more creativity, especially in closed figures. The style of dress changes based on the type, with International Style gowns in more of a floating style than those worn during American Style
