Waltz, also known as waltz, is a form of self-entertainment dance, the earliest and very vital form of self-entertainment dance in social dance.
Waltz is one of the modern dance projects, which has the characteristics of beauty and softness. The melody of the dance music is beautiful and lyrical, and the rhythm is 3/4 adagio, about 28 to 30 bars per minute. Through the movements of knees, ankles, palms, heels and toes, combined with the lifting, tilting and swinging of the body, the dance steps are driven to move, making the dance steps undulating and elegant.
Characteristics of waltz
1, swing action and turning action are inseparable, and the engine is related to the tire. If there is no turn, the swing will appear stiff and unbalanced. The appearance of swing completion is to complete a light, elegant and dynamic dance by relying on the skill of time movement through the center of the body, the movement of legs and hips, and the swing of shoulders and arms.
2. The dancer's thinking logic will think that the upper body is motionless, but the limbs are free, and the cooperation and coordination between the partners can't be bound. This is a good phenomenon. The twist can relax the muscles of the limbs, so be prepared for the twist before swinging. Knees are relaxed and bent, the body is slightly forward from above the legs, the shoulders are relaxed and flat, the back is slightly tight, and the body center of gravity is placed on the palm of your hand.
3. After starting the movement, the rotation referred to in the dance step refers to the rotation between feet, not the rotation of the body, especially for women, there are almost only forward and backward movements, and the rotation is completely completed by men.

3. Waltz is a good exercise, and the purpose of fitness can be achieved through the length of performance and the number of trainings.
Explanation of basic waltz steps
1, measurement steps
The square step consists of a forward basic step and a backward basic step. Because of the established habit that men start from the left and women start from the right, retreating to the left and retreating to the right will lead to completely different development directions of the motion trajectory. When you make progress before practice, you can only adapt to the change of dance steps, but not to the opposite change. Therefore, we must learn and practice the next step. Taking a step back is the same as taking a step forward, but the direction is slightly changed.
2. Turn left 90 degrees.
The first step must be the same as the square step. No matter whether you advance or retreat, you must keep your feet upright, and after the center of gravity shifts, your heels must be slightly raised so that your center of gravity falls on the soles of your feet. This will not only make it easy for you to roll your foot to complete a 90-degree turn when you brush the center of gravity foot in the second step, but also ensure the development of the red line of the horizontal foot reliably. At this time, you will realize that the harsh requirements of square step practice are not unreasonable.
3. Turn right 90 degrees
There is no certain rule about whether you are advanced or backward, especially when you are entertaining yourself. This is mainly to adapt to the starting habits of men left and women right. If you like to push your right foot to make a right turn, it is not only possible, but also marks that you have broken through the limitation of habit and started to enter the progressive state of free movement.
