The dances which we perform are separated into three groups, Standard, Latin and Classical. Dances marked with an asterik (*) are dances which many club members have learned, but do not currently practice.
Modern sequence ballroom dances use steps that are associated with international style, standard ballroom dancing. The dance partners do not separate while performing these dances.

In Classical sequence ballroom dances, the dancers will separate from their partners to perform specific moves, not unlike movements found in American Smooth ballroom routines. Classical dances include some older styles of dancing such as the Saunter, Swing and Blues. Some classical style 'Old Time Waltzes' are danced at a faster tempo than the modern slow waltz. New Vogue waltzes fall into this category and are danced at speeds which are closer to the Viennese Waltz.
