I think Richard Stites has something in his Russian Popular Culture about the upper echelons of Soviet leadership under Stalin being required to learn to dance. He may mention the fox-trot specifically. Stalin by Starlight.

Subject: [SEELANGS] foxtrot in Soviet Culture
Greetings, SEELANGers!
I am wondering if anyone might be able to recommend sources that mention the dance the foxtrot in the context of Soviet culture (either its popularization or condemnation). Feel free to respond off-list.
Many thanks in advance,
Julie
