What kinds of dances are danced in a world competition?

I'm just wondering, because I can't find a list anywhere. I watched some sort of competition and now I want to know more.

Update:

Ballroom dancing, I think.

    If it's ballroom, then the dances danced would be International Standard, which is Modern Waltz, Tango, Quickstep, Viennese Waltz and Foxtrot, and International Latin American, which is Samba, Cha cha, Rhumba, Jive and Paso Doble.

    Each studio has their possess regulations approximately prize cash and if the youngster's mother and father did not speak about this with the instructor while she began competing, it is very tricky to now move and ask for this to difference. In my institution, one hundred% of prize cash is paid straight to the institution and is discounted from the successful pupil's dance institution and mother and father signal a agreement to that outcome as quickly because the youngster begins taking aspect in competitions. Many colleges do a percent break up, enabling the guardian/youngster to maintain one of the most cash, however once more that is frequently agreed prematurely via a agreement. No guardian desires to appear boastful as though they anticipate their youngster to win, however in the event you plan to get concerned in competitions with prize cash on present, then you definitely must speak about it with the instructor earlier than any entries move in in order that an contract may also be reached and positioned into writing.
