est une danse populaire née parmi les Noirs de Virginie. Dans le sud des États-Unis, les esclaves disposaient de rares moments de détente. Le dimanche, ils profitaient parfois de l’absence des maîtres pour faire vivre ce qui leur restait de tradition africaine. Ces moments si rares comptaient beaucoup pour eux. Parfois, les colons conciliants assistaient à ces rendez-vous et récompensaient les meilleurs danseurs par un gâteau, d’où le nom de cake-walk (« marche du gâteau ») donné à ce type de danse syncopée, en forme de marche.
