BEST GERMAN DANCERS PROFILES :
German folk dance was consisted of a series of chasses and hops done to 2/4 and 4/4 music. There were also combination dances such as the polka-redowa and polka-mazurka. Waltz from the old German word walzen to roll, turn, or to glide. A German traveler to Paris in 1804 stated, this love for the waltz and this adoption of the German dance is quite new and has become one of the vulgar fashions since the war, like smoking.

IN THE YEARS immediately after World War I, several impulses within the German modern dance movement attempted to present the nude body as a sign of a modern, liberated identity "in the age of mechanical reproduction. German dance-theater aesthetics of the 1920s are so dense with unresolved and even unspoken controversy; I want to examine several conflicts encountered by the modern dance world of the Weimar Republic in trying to use nudity in dance to equate a "more modern" condition with the act of asserting a "more naked" identity.

None of these dances grew more popular than the waltz, which was first introduced to the Austrian court in the 17th century. Its gliding, whirling movements immediately became the rage throughout the entire population. Some people, however, found waltzing undignified, and in 1760 the performance of waltzes was banned by the church in parts of Germany.

Similar to earlier pieces associated with battles, sword dances were performed in Germany, Scotland, and elsewhere in Europe. Similar to the sword dance is the Morris dance, which was performed at secular festivals from Scotland to Spain.
