Waltz Country Dance (version 2)
Formation: Sicilian circle
Difficulty: 2
Style: English
| A1: | Give right hand to corner, balance in, out and change place with lady turning under man’s arm. Repeat with partner. |
| A2: | Repeat A1. |
| B1: | Join hands around circle, balance in, out and ladies change places by man passing corner into partner’s place. Repeat. |
| B2: | In ballroom hold slide forward two steps and back [see note], then waltz on past opposites to meet a new couple. |
In B2 you can omit the slides forward and back, to give more time to waltz on, if preferred.
I think this is the version usually danced now, rather than version 1 (see cross-ref).
Music: 32-bar waltzes
Thumbnail: Waltz time. Balance and change places with opposite then partner. Balance the circle, women roll across, four times. Waltz on.
