The Quickstep, with its roots in Ragtime, was developed in the 1920\u2019s in New York from a combination of Foxtrot, Charleston, Peabody and the One-Step. Originally it was danced solo \u2013 away from the partner, but later became a partner dance. It was originally given the name \u201cQuick Time Fox Trot\u201d but eventually that name was changed to Quickstep. The dance traveled to England and was developed into the dance that we know today, and was standardized in 1927. In a basic form Quickstep is a combination of walks and chasses but in an advanced stage hops jumps & many syncopations are utilized. It is an elegant and glamorous dance and body contact is maintained throughout the dance.<\/p>\n
