The Galliard and Gavotte were athletic dances, as was the Volta, which involved the female partner, supported by the male, leaping into the air!

There are two related forms known as Morris Dancing. There are the various traditional dances of the British Isles which are collectively known as "Morris Dancing". These include quite a variety of dance forms including Cotswold, Border, North-West, Rapper, and Sword dancing. Some of these types have more of a male tradition, others more a female, but today dancers of both sexes can be found dancing all forms. Dancers can be found performing these dances all over the UK and in many other countries across the world. Their origins seem to be in 14th Century Courtly dances and relatives of Morris dancing can be found surviving across Europe.

Girls have dresses, shakers (pom poms) and pumps with bells on. They go to competitions every week, then after the Christmas term train until march. Woody Malmesbury Morris

What are all the dances that the ballroom dancers dance?
there are two main categories that ballroom dance is divided into: Ballroom/standard and Latin American. Ballroom/Standard has five dances within its category that are the Waltz, Foxtrot, Quickstep, Tango and the Viennesse Waltz, the Latin American category also has five dances that are the Cha Cha, Rumba, Samba Paso Doble and the Jive (the Jive is why its Latin AMERICAN, not just Latin) theres other dances known as sequence dances that are in two categories as well, New Vogue and Old Time/Classical Sequence. in these groups i cannot remember how many dances are in each, nor am I going to attempt to name them but what makes them different is that all the dancers have the one routine, there is no variation on it and they are judged in copetitions by floor prescence, footwork, posture etc. Hope i helped.
