But it is the variations which make this season's waltz really now. There are a good many, but the most usual are the outside and the Boston hesitations.
The provinces have always been a stronghold of the waltz, and I am always delighted when I fulal engagements out of London to see how high a standard is reached in this dance. The hesitations will give the dance a new lense, of life in the provinces, and by the end of this sonson every winning couple in a waltz competition will probably have to show the judges that they can do one or more of these move- ments casily and gracefully. There is no denying the fact that the husi- tations are a test of good balance. They are not easy to do well.
For the outside hesitation the man steps outside his partner'a tracks, and the first half of the left hand turn is executed. Then comes the hesitation followed by the second half of the right-hand turn.
The other hesitation is based on i the old Boston dance so popular seven or eight years ago, but it alsa comprises an element of the fascinating Scissors step of the tango, and is sometimes called the Scissors hesitation for this reason.
It is done from the left-hand turn and starts with two steps, which the man dous to the outside of his partner. The first is with the left foot, and the second with the right, and there is a close after ench. Also each step takes up three beats or a whole bar of the music.
Then. come four Scissors steps that is, long steps done at right angles with the line of dance first to one sile and then to the other. The move- ment is finished with the second half of the right-hand turn rub- ning into the second half of the left hand turn.
Now that we have these authoris- ed variations in the waliz; there is
