B. Presentation

Social dances and dance mixers are dances

intended primarily to get to know other
people in attendance at a certain social
function. That is why it is also referred to as
communal dances since it is being
performed in social/community settings.

They are also called ballroom dances and

they are usually performed in pairs, male
and female, but may also be performed in
groups.

C. Lesson Proper

Social dances are classified into two major

classifications namely the Latin American
Dances and the Modern Standard Dances.

Latin American Dances include the salsa,

mambo, meringue, swing, cha-cha-cha,
rumba, samba, jive, boogie, and paso
doble.

Why are these dances called Latin

American dances, class?

Very good! They are called Latin American

dances since they originated in Latin

outfits, can someone differentiate Latin

performers. They are somewhat revealing,

dances are also distinguished by the nature
of the movements. Latin dances are freer
and can be performed in close or open
hold. For Modern Standard dances, most of
the time, movements in these are
restricted to close ballroom position with
partner.

Moving on, here are the origin of dances in

both Latin American and Modern Standard
groups. This might also help in
understanding the nature and background
of social dances and dance mixers. Below is
where each of the dances enumerated
came from:

Under the Modern Standard Dances, Slow
Walts originated in Austria in Europe,
Tango is from Argentina in South America,
