Dancing in some form is nearly as old as the human race. And social couples dancing is only part of the whole spectrum of dancing, with close neighbors that include group dancing and individual dancing. You won’t find an entry in Wikipedia for the Elvira line dance or the Swim individual dance, even though a lot more people (well, maybe a lot more Americans at least) likely did (and in the case of the Elvira still do) these than ever did the Viennese waltz. Inexplicably, Wikipedia DOES have the Stroll, the Pony, and some other of these generally easy-to-do party dances.
