International Standard

International Standard is comprised of five dances competed in the order of: Waltz, Tango, Viennese Waltz, Foxtrot, and Quickstep. The most distinguishing characteristic of International Standard, often abbreviated as “Standard”, is the hold. Couples maintain a consistent frame throughout the entire dance moving counterclockwise around the dance floor. Standard is internationally accepted as the oldest style of partner dancing dating back to the 1700s.
