Ballroom dancing has four distinct styles...
American style (danced mainly in the US) consists of "rhythm" which includes rumba, cha cha, east coast swing, bolero, and mambo. "Smooth" includes foxtrot, waltz, tango, and viennese waltz.
International style (danced throughout the world) consists of "latin" which includes rumba, cha cha, jive, paso doble and samba. "Standard" includes waltz, foxtrot, tango, quickstep, and viennese waltz.
There are different patterns and different techniques in the styles.
