# Trevor Copp and Jeff Fox: Ballroom dance that breaks gender roles

Tango, waltz, foxtrot ... these classic ballroom dances quietly perpetuate an outdated idea: that the man always leads and the woman always follows.

Watch as Copp and Fox captivate and command the stage while boldly deconstructing and transforming the art of ballroom dance.
