Winter Formal Winter formal, also called Winterfest, Winter Ball, Sweethearts, Snow Ball, or Queen of Hearts Dance, is a dance held by high schools in the United States and Canada.

Participation dance Participation dance (also group-participation dance or audience participation dance) is a major class of dance that encourages dancing in a group. It includes social games based on dancing, for example at weddings, festivals and other social gatherings. Some have simple words to be sung to the music, which may act as a reminder of the steps - one example is the Hokey-cokey. Some consist of a few simple steps learned either from simple instructions given by a leader or from watching others. Examples are Electric Slide, Macarena, YMCA, and the Chicken Dance.
