The most striking peak of the waltz’s heyday is considered to be the beginning of the nineteenth century. The popularity of the waltz first spread throughout Vienna, and after that the waltz became known for its beauty and grace all over the world. But, like many other types of dance in each country, the waltz was danced in its own way, adding some elements of its own to the main movements. Over time, such types of waltz as Hungarian, English, Mazurka waltz and many others have appeared in the world. Since the moment when the waltz appeared in the world, its popularity among people is only growing and growing every year. No dance could achieve such fame.

In the twenties of the twentieth century, new types of waltz appeared in England, which were formed depending on the musical accompaniment of this dance. The famous types of waltz were joined by the Boston waltz and the slow waltz. As a result of the further transformation of these types of waltz, a modern slow waltz appeared, which is so often danced at dance competitions and various celebrations.

Overseas, they learned about the Viennese waltz only in 1800. All the time of its existence, the waltz has undergone minor changes, and after the First World War it has changed significantly. It was only in 1921, and five years after that, that it was decided which basic movements the waltz should consist of – a step, a step to the side and a prefix. The latest changes in the waltz have become the basis for the modern classical waltz known all over the world.
