It's an old Russian Ballroom dance. I think it does mean Spanish step although
it doesn't feel Spanish to me when I dance it. I'm not exactly sure when it
emerged although on another newsgroup someone posted that their grandmother
learned it in the early 1900s. I'm just beginning to look for additional
background info on this dance.
