A classic type of ballroom dance is the Waltz, which is a folk dance performed in ¾ time, primarily in a closed position. The Waltz first became popular in Vienna during the end of the 18th century, quickly spreading around Europe in the following years. Most other ballroom and folk dances have developed around the Waltz’s closed position; including the “Hesitation Waltz”, performed with fast music and dramatic hesitations. With professional ballroom dance classes, Dancing City is your source for learning the Waltz in Houston.
Many people find that learning to waltz is one of the hallmarks of refinement. Beginning in the United States towards the end of the 19th century, families with high social standing would ensure that their children learned how to waltz before they were properly introduced to their counterparts; in some social circles, this practice continues today. Many formal events feature the Waltz in Houston, and most fine preparatory schools offer some type of instruction in the Waltz to their students as they prepare them to enter society. As difficult as the dance may seem, with practice ballroom dance classes, it is actually not overly-complicated.
Learning the Waltz in Houston has never been easier than it is today at Dancing City. Let our skilled instructors show you how to enter the refined world of waltzing, as they patiently walk you through the step patterns of this formal ballroom dance. We are happy to instruct you privately, or join one of our group ballroom dance classes.
