What ballroom dance style has lifts?

May 11th, 2011 admin

Any ballroom dance can have lifts in it. It just depends on the choreography and the level of the dancing. For competition however, the only category that would be permitted to have lifts would be “showdance” or “cabaret”. For the other categories lifts are not allowed, you have to have one foot on the floor at all times. T0 choreograph a showdance, you can pick whatever dance you want ( usually it would be one of the slower dances like rumba or waltz, but anything will work) and add lifts into the choreography to make the routine a showdance.
