Quickstep and Foxtrot have a shared origin, and evolved into different dances as the music became more distinct as either "fast" (Quickstep) or "slow" (Foxtrot).

 

Quickstep music is bright and carefree. The dance is part of the International Standard Style, and as such is studied by dancers who plan to use it in exhibition, competition, or on larger social dance floors.
