The variety of cultures combined to bring about a new style of music, formed from African beats, Indian rhythms, Latin influences, and the popular music of the pampas in Argentina. This new music was dubbed tango.\n\nAs they did with many other dances, Europeans adopted the tango and made it their own. A very powerful dance was the result, with big movements, dramatic gestures, and quick snaps of the head from one position to another.\n\n<iframe title=\"OHIO STAR BALL - 2019 - Victor Fung &amp; Anastasia Muravyova - Tango Showdance\" width=\"950\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-sefFviuCa4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<h2>Foxtrot<\/h2>\nThe foxtrot is a smooth, progressive dance characterized by long, continuous flowing movements across the dance floor.
