Foxtrot:
Ragtime music was still very popular during the first decade of the 20th century. It was during this time Harry Fox originated and coined the popular dance - the Foxtrot.
The Foxtrot introduced a slow-slow-quick-quick syncopation and it was necessary to have music that followed the same pattern. Ragtime music created a new genre that had a smooth, upbeat tempo and could follow the 4/4 rhythms. The Foxtrot remains a very popular ballroom dance today, although it may possibly be the hardest to learn to date.
