American Social Dancing in the 20th Century

American Social Dancing has changed a lot through the decades. Social dance is a "classification of dance styles, where sociability and socializing are the primary focus". Some social dances include: ballroom dance, folk dance, square dance, line dance, and even club dancing. These are meant to be fun, and are not intended as competition or performance dances. Social dances reflect the period and culture in which they were originally created. The music involved with each type of dance is also crucial to the style of dance. For example, swing dancing is typically done to Big Band music, while jazz dance was done to jazz music.
== Background: What makes it unique? ==
The 20th century brought about a change in social dances. The "old fashioned and out of step" dances such as "the waltz and polka" needed to make way "for something different and new".〔 In the past, only upper class dances had been recorded because lower class dances were "not deemed worthy of record". However, now in the 20th century, "the Industrial Age was upon us, a new middle class was emerging and great social…innovations were on the horizon".〔 The upper class even became more accepting of dance music that began in lower classes. An example of this is Ragtime dance and music. Ragtime had a "lively, infectious new sound".〔 Some other forms of dancing that made a huge impact were jazz and swing dance. These dances are both energetic and had their own personality and culture. Jazz was danced to jazz music and swing was danced to Big Band music.
