Ceroc (French C'est rock) is partner dance best described as a fusion of salsa and jive, but without the complicated footwork. It is derived from many other dances including French jive, swing, Lindy hop, and rock and roll, the main change being simplified footwork which makes it more accessible to beginners.

The footwork and hand patterns are similar to Merengue, but with the inclusion of outward turns, multiple turns and dips. It is danced to almost any music, typically '60s through to modern popular music.

Ceroc is, like many partner dances, traditionally a male-led dance. Despite this tradition many female dancers today also learn the lead role, even though few male dancers learn the follow role. This is usually because ceroc events have more female participants than male ones, and many males are less comfortable engaging in a partner dance with a member of the same sex than females are.
