Waltz

Timeless & Elegant

Waltz needs no introduction.  It is the timeless standard of elegance.  Unmistakable in its movement and posture, the Waltz exudes an elevated floating feeling that leaves both the dancer and spectators in the clouds.

In contract, Waltz was originally a peasants dance regarded by the aristocracy of the time as crass and unrefined.  Waltz - Wikipedia

"But when he put his arm around her, pressed her to his breast, cavorted with her in the shameless, indecent whirling-dance of the Germans and engaged in a familiarity that broke all the bounds of good breeding—then my silent misery turned into burning rage."

Waltz is mostly danced in Ballroom scenes as part of the socials and competitions. It does not have its own dedicated community.

Within the Ballroom world, it is usually taught as the first dance, because of its name recognition and the fundamentals that come with it.

If you’re interested in learning classic Ballroom dancing, this is the one for you. We recommend pairing this dance with Rumba because of its box pattern basic.
