Our Top Waltz Dancing Tips Tips

Everyone wants to speed up their learning and have their Waltz dancing flow elegantly without any hiccups as soon as possible! At Arthur Murray Dance Studios we provide specialised Waltz Classes in Sydney to help make sure everything goes to plan. Below our top tips to help you make the most out of your Waltz classes.

Wear dance-friendly shoes for your wedding dance

It might seem obvious, many forget to wear comfortable shoes for their Waltz classes. And although comfortable shoes are a great start, we strongly recommend investing in some proper dancing shoes. This because a proper dance shoe will give you just the right amount of traction. This will allow you to move around the floor and practice your Waltz dance skills without having to think about the shoes you are wearing. Dance shoes have thinner soles than normal shoes and a steel shank for support. The shoe material is also flexible and lightweight.

Your friendly Arthur Murray Waltz dance instructor will be able to assist you in picking the most suitable dance shoe so you can make the most out of your Waltz classes. 

Consider the dance floor space for your Waltz classes

Always make sure that the space you will utilise for your Waltz classes is suitable for the dance style and shoes you will be wearing. Having the wrong combination could limit your ability to perform certains steps safely and might even become the cause of injury.

At Learn To Dance, all our studios are equipped with professional dancing floors to ensure you are able to practice safely and enjoy every minute of your Waltz classes.

Wear a comfortable outfit to your Waltz classes

This is also often forgotten. When attending your Waltz classes, make sure that you wear a lose and comfortable outfit. Feel free to dress up a little bit, but make sure to pick an outfit that won’t restrict your movement or one that you have to keep checking to ensure it is still in the right place.

This will allow you to move freely and focus solely on the task at hand. Spending that extra minute or two to pick a suitable outfil for your Waltz dance classes will go a long way in helping you stay focused and maximise your learning outcomes.

Get plenty of practice before your wedding dance

This tip goes without saying. Practice makes perfect. You can never rehearse your first dance too many times. Put the hours in and you will be sure to perform a stunning dance that will impressive your friends and family. Our Wedding Dance Classes in Sydney will give you the confidence you need to put on a great performance.

Pick a song you love for your practice time

Frequently Asked Questions

The Waltz is a beautiful, smooth and relatively slow dance that is distinguished by its rise and fall movements. The Waltz is an early classic that dominated ballroom in the 18th century. Furthermore, the dancers’ shoulders continuously move smoothly, parallel with the ground.

The Waltz dates its origins back to sixteenth-century Europe, specifically, Germany and Austria.

The origins of The Waltz can be dated back all the way to the 16th century. At this time, high society in Germany would dance a form of ballroom called Volta. This was similar to the Waltz and was danced in high-class dance halls throughout the country.

Eventually, the upper classes decided that Volta was too intimate and was considered a scandalous dance. This caused it to fade away for a while in Germany. Luckily for the future of the Waltz, the common people of Austria had a similar dance called the Ländler.

The Ländler was popular and spread to Vienna in the 18th century. Over time, it developed and became known as the Viennese Waltz. This dance would later become an extremely popular dance throughout Europe thanks to the musical masterpieces of Johann Strauss and Franz Lanner.

Today, the Waltz is danced all across the world and in many forms.

There are no rules to this, however, there are some styles that are more popular than others. These might include Waltz, Sway, The Slow Dance, Swing, Foxtrot and of course Waltz just to name a few.  Speak with our friendly team at Arthur Murray Dance Studios to book your first free session and to decide which dance would be best for you.

Waltz classes are a great way to start or continue your dancing journey. Despite your current level, Waltz classes are a fantastic way to stay fit and meet new people.
