Viennese Waltz

The dance as we know it was immortalized in the 1800′s by such composers as Joseph Lanner and Josef Strauss. In the middle of the 20th century, the German, Paul Krebs, choreographed the Viennese Waltz style to which we dance today. The dance enjoys a great deal of popularity not only in Europe but also in America, and has been used in many Hollywood productions.
 
This dance progresses in a counter-clockwise direction and is continually revolving. Because of the speed and rotation involved, there is much less rise and fall than Slow Waltz, but a greater use of sway is needed to control the turns.
