Ice Dancing

Dancing on ice has been a competitive Olympic winter sport since 1976. It may seem similar to figure ice-skating; the only difference is the style. Dancing on ice is based on ballroom dance, so don’t expect a lot of leaping and jumping. If you have a background in dance and can ice skate, this sport can be easy to learn.
