The foxtrot originated in the United States around the 1910s, with its name believed to be derived from the famous vaudeville actor Harry Fox.  The dance combines slow and quick steps, making it an elegant and flowing ballroom dance. It became popular in the 1920s and 1930s, during the jazz and swing eras.  The foxtrot is now considered a standard ballroom dance.  No experience necessary and no partner required.
