  • @unijade Foxtrot and quickstep are very similar in the musical style as both are danced to big band 4/4 time music. The main difference is the tempo. Where Foxtrot is around 120 bpm, quick step is much faster being closer to 200 bpm. So as you can see, identifying quickstep is the same as identifying foxtrot only at a much faster tempo.

  • @unijade Foxtrot is typically dance to Big Band /Swing music and usually danced slow slow quick quick with each slow consisting of two beats and  each quick of one beat. As you can see, the basic requires 6 beats so to end on a measure requires two basics in the same manner as east coast swing. QuickStep is very Fast and lively Tempo Big Band Swing style music. Some music may also be suitable for lindy hop or fast swing. Quickstep is danced slow quick quick, slow, quick, quick.
