Dance in triple time is a type of dance that involves three beats per measure. The most common dances in this style are the JIG, veleta, and WALTZ. A JIG is a lively dance with quick steps and hops, usually accompanied by music in 6/8 or 9/8 time. The veleta is a Spanish dance in 3/4 time, characterized by a series of turns and glides. The WALTZ is a popular ballroom dance in 3/4 time, with a strong accent on the first beat of each measure.
