What is Mostly Waltz?
Experience waltzing at its most joyful, flowing, and free! Learn the basics in a welcoming atmosphere. Rooted in the lively, turning dances of 18th-century Austrian peasants and once considered scandalous for its close embrace and spinning steps, the waltz has long since won hearts around the world. At Mostly Waltz, we celebrate the folk and social styles of waltz—graceful, musical, and made for fun, not perfection.
Instructor: Gerhardt Quast
What is Mostly Waltz?
Each session starts with 30–45 minutes of beginner-friendly instruction, introducing styles not often taught in Ballroom classes like Turning Waltz, Linear Waltz, and Cross-step Waltz (not all at once!). Then the dance floor opens for practice and play, with a DJ spinning gorgeous music in 3/4 time from a wide range of traditions. Whether you're brand new, rediscovering your love of dance, or eager to explore new waltz styles beyond the ballroom box step, you're warmly invited. Come solo or with a partner—just bring your curiosity, your love of music, and your willingness to spin!
What should I wear?
Wear clothing that is comfortable to dance in with non-marking, smooth soled shoes that glide when you spin are highly recommended.
