The Quick Step was a popular march around 1850, but it has nothing to do with the modern ballroom Quick Step, which was blended from a variety of dance styles such as the Charleston but more notably the Foxtrot, which could be danced at either a fast or slow tempo to a variety of musical styles. The Foxtrot was all the rage in the 1920s and is still highly popular today. As the Foxtrot evolved and people began to distinguish different versions, the slower version became known as the Slow Foxtrot. Further variations developed, however, such as when the Slow Foxtrot was played too fast by many bands. The faster version was then known as the Quick-Time Foxtrot,parajumpers bear vest outlet Hampton Roads Technology Council, and this was further simplified to the Quick Step in the late 1920s. Influenced also by the Waltz, which is danced in3/4 time, the Quick Step is a 4/4 time dance with a speed of around 200 beats per minute.
