nightclub dance

See Ballroom dance In a wider sense, the term Nightclub dance, or Club dance, is used in the meaning of Disco dance (see Disco music).

In a narrower sense, especially in the context of dance competitions, the term Nightclub dances is used to denote a group of social partner dances less formalized than Ballroom dances, but more formalized than Street dances. (Some of them are considered "street dances" as well.) As their name suggests, they are suitable for dancing in informal atmosphere of night clubs, bars, etc. They are formalized in two respects: they are taught in dance studios, their steps /patterns are relatively well established and documented, and there are competitions in these dances. Social dancing of the USA recognizes the following nightclub dances:

- West Coast Swing - East Coast Swing - Lindy Hop - Nightclub Two Step - Hustle - Salsa

In addition,

- Modern Jive / LeRoc / Ceroc

are popular in Europe.
