Bolero

The Bolero is a smooth, sophisticated, sentimental love dance. The emphasis is on smoothness and graceful turns with much communication between partners. The slower music to which it is performed enhances a feeling of romance. The foot positions are similar to Rumba but have a very different feeling. The slip pivoting action is its trademark giving it a floating, continuous turn but graceful and sensual look and feel. Music is 4/4 timing and is now danced as a very slow type of Rumba rhythm, 20 to 25 bars per minute.
