Question: Can you dance a waltz to shania twain's 'from this moment on'!?
I am learning from a youtube clip how to dance the waltz (the box step)!. I wanted to know does that dance style fit the song, 'from this moment' by shania twain!? while practicing the step i couldnt really get in rhythm with the song!. perhaps i'm doing it wrong, or perhaps the song doesn't fit the step!. any thoughts!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
It's in cut time, not waltz time!. You can practice your box step, but you'll need to change the timing!. Try dancing in Slow, Quick, Quick rhythm, a slow step taking two beats of music and a quick taking one beat!. The tempo's a bit awkward, but it can be done!. I'd recommend practicing waltz to music in waltz time, though!. For a good sampling of clips in the proper time and tempo, try http://www!.ballroomdancers!.com/Music/sea!.!.!. !.
Please tell me you're actually taking lessons and not trying to DIY with YouTube or something silly like that!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
