Quickstep



As Ragtime music evolved into Swing through the 1920\'s, new dances such as the
Charleston, the Shimmy, and the Black Bottom became popular. The Charlston was
danced with wild swinging arms and side kicks to music at 200 to 240 beats per
minute. It subsequently became very popular worldwide, but the wild character
of the dance induced many sedate ballrooms either to ban it altogether, or to
put up notices saying simply \"PCQ\", standing for \"Please Charleston Quietly\".
These dances became absorbed into a faster version of Foxtrot after a visit by
Paul Whiteman\'s band to the UK in 1923, becoming known as the Quickstep.
Currently it is danced at a tempo of approximately 200 beats per minute. It
retains the walks, runs, chasses and turns, of the original Foxtrot, with some
other fast figures such as locks, hops, and skips added.
