The Foxtrot is a popular ballroom dance that first emerged about a century ago. From the time of its release until the 1940s, the Foxtrot was the most popular fast-paced dance. When the Foxtrot premiered, it was generally danced to ragtime and influenced records for decades.

In contemporary society, the dance is typically accompanied by swing-style big band music. There are now two common variations of the Foxtrot: the slow version, simply known as Foxtrot, and quick, which is called Quickstep. If you have never learned the dance, there are several establishments offering Seattle Foxtrot dance lessons.
