Can you dance a foxtrot to Let's Stay Together by Al Green? Everything I have read says that you should dance a rumba to Let's Stay Together, but I have read that you can often dance foxtrots instead of rumbas. I don't know much about ballroom dancing, but we know how to foxtrot and don't know how to rumba.

Looking for foxtrot dance instruction video or dvd? I am looking for a video or dvd that shows the individual steps of the International Standard dance Foxtrot.

I am also looking to find out exactly what steps of the Foxtrot are learned and danced at each level of lessons. My husband and I are having to teach ourselves owing to the fact that we live in rural Australia and their is absolutely nobody here to teach us how to dance correctly for when we get to go away to a dance (all 'dancers' here have taught themselves 'country and western style of dancing'). The dance that we like to travel to dances all the ballroom dances, We eventually want to learn all of them. Any help will be greatly appreciated. A big thank you to anyone who takes their time to help us out. We really want to improve on what we have tried to teach ourselves so far.

Trivia question about a comedian and a dance craze? My Husband has given me a riddle he has heard from somewhere and I have searched high and low for the answer to no avail. There is a dance named after a comedian who is over 50 now, and had a sitcom for 4 years. What/who is it? It can't be the Foxtrot after Mr. Fox in the early 1900's... obviously because it was before sitcoms. But this is the closest I have come. Any ideas?
