Foxtrot vs Quickstep

"Foxtrot is characterized by long, gliding, perfectly smooth steps, demanding ease of movement and control to give the dance a lazy and unhurried appearance,...only possible to dance in a large and uncrowded ballroom... Social dancers would be well advised to learn to adapt the simple basic figures of the Quickstep."
Alex Moore 1963
Which is what Arthur Murray did with the Magic Step.
