How to step on the right beat in ballroom dancing

The rhythm of ballroom dancing is as follows:

1, slow three: slow three, belonging to three steps. Three steps, as the name implies, are three beats per bar, the first beat is stressed, and the last two beats are weak, and the rhythm is "strong, weak and weak". Slow three's simplest dance step is the straight step, while slow three's dance step is similar to walking, only with an understanding of music. For slow three, the first beat is a remake, with a bigger step, while the second beat and the third beat are weak beats, and the steps are adjusted.

2, fast three: fast three belongs to three steps, naturally it is three beats and one bar, and the stress is in the first beat. Only internal rotation is commonly used. Although the jumping method is the same as that of slow three, the pace of the third year is faster than that of slow three. Therefore, when jumping fast three, the three steps are combined into two steps, and the most important thing is the movement of the center of gravity.
