thank you for this. i'm writing a story and my characters in the story are doing a waltz, but i've never done it before! this video will help me to describe things in the story :)

This was extremely helpful. I have waltzed before, but I've never taught it, especially to a man! My fiance and I will be waltzing at our wedding and I'm teaching him. I will teach him exactly this. Wish me luck! Thank you.

Thanks Eglis, perfect and simple, easy to pick up the Waltz steps by you and your partner. I am 75 and wanted to learn and teach my wife too the Waltz. Your video is very helpful to us.

my wife and I are celebrating our 50th anniversary, and have never learned to waltz. we just sort of winged it. But at this party we want to look nice, to the song we have chosen. THANKN YOU!!!

[oldpigsqueal]

Excellent, thank you. Everything you need to know concisely and clearly without tedious repetition.

[SolarSeaSlug]

Thanks for this! I'm writing a story where one character is teaching another to dance (it's a sort of medieval fantasy setting) and doing research on the dancing steps is a lot of fun. This was really helpful <3

Thank You! I know I'm 6 years late to this video, but I have no local studio's by me anymore. Took lessons 13 years ago and this is a good refresher!

[annmascetti]

Great teaching- thank you for the inclusion of the details of the footwork- in just a 5 min video. Awesome!! It would help me to hear your classic music to waltz to because that is what one hears when dancing- I could not hear the waltz beat in this music- but still, great teaching!

[GtierGoes]

Your video is amazing, Egils. Very clear speech and simple steps.
Thank you!
I am definitely using this in the near future.

Had my first dance lesson at a local school yesterday...but this vid really helped me get the heel/toe aspect correct. Fundamental to the whole thing so glad I watched this vid. Thanks Eglis !

[londontheriault]

Thanks a lot man! I actually plan to waltz with the girl I like someday, maybe when I finish high school. I’d really love to dance with her. Thanks again!

[alexandriazingerella]

Been wanting to learn for a long time. Thank you so much for the easy tutorial!

[Ethan_Moeller]

I like to play waltzes on piano, but want to learn the dance too.

Thank you; this was helpful, as I was trying to describe the process of learning it in a story I'm writing...

A man in the scene I'm writing is teaching a woman how to waltz, as she has two left feet when it comes to slow dances; the only things she knows are the jive and the jitterbug.

So yeah, this was nice the way you broke it down into small chunks; it was easier for me to process than from other videos I've seen. Thanks again!

[pajapode]

Egils, thank you very much for your conprehensible presentation of basic steps and other things for this amazing dance!

[jacktaylor]

Dude, that was cool. I had one ballroom class recently but forgot some of it. This helped me remember. Good tutorial, my dude.

[hyonsukseifert]

You two dance very elegantly. Thank you for the lesson.

[lowgascostsorangeman]

You're the best and the most thorough.
