Summary: Beautiful Dresses. Sparkling Champagne. A full Orchestra. These are just some of the thoughts that come to mind when dancing the historic Waltz. Born out of Austria in the seventeenth century, this dance has gained notable attention as a dance of prestige and beauty. Quite a few variations have evolved throughout the world, but the basic waltz must have a musical beat of ¾. Despite its international attention, this dance was once denounced by the Church as sinful and vulgar. However, much to your relief, this angelic dance will inspire no condemnation in today's era. Instead, enjoy the praise of others as you learn to glide gracefully across the floor with your partner.

In this expert video series, Sarolta Eke and Tamas Kassai show you how to dance the popular Waltz. With their instruction, you will learn basic waltzing steps and proper holding techniques. Also, learn more advanced moves like the whisk, progressive walk, and cross hesitation. The underarm waltzing turn is one of the most beautiful waltzing dance steps offered in this series. So, waltz right into our free dance lessons today!
