Bold, theatrical, and charged with undeniable drama. The Paso Doble channels the spirit of a Spanish bullfight — commanding posture, sharp flamenco-influenced footwork, and a presence that owns every inch of the floor.
About the Style
Paso Doble is one of the most theatrical dances in the ballroom repertoire — a dramatic style inspired by the Spanish bullfight, where the leader represents the matador and the follower the cape. The music is march-like and relentless, the posture proud and upright, and the choreography full of dramatic poses and flamenco-inspired footwork.
At DFW Social Dance Studio, we teach Paso Doble with attention to the musical phrasing and dramatic structure that make this dance so distinctive. You'll work on the characteristic marching step, the Spanish line, and the sweeping figure work that gives Paso Doble its unmistakable stage presence.
Paso Doble is one of the least common social dances, but one of the most visually striking. If you want a dance that makes an impression and channels your inner performer, there is nothing else quite like it.
