At danceScape, we are all about having fun through music and learning to dance. And the dances that best represent romance and passion are the Waltz, Rumba, and Tango.

The Waltz originated in the grand ballrooms of Vienna and during the 19th century, this dance caused quite a lot of scandal when it was introduced to the Society Balls in England. This was the first time that couples young and old began to embrace each other while dancing in public. Wrote The Times of London newspaper, “We remarked with pain that the indecent foreign dance called the Waltz was introduced at the English court … it is quite sufficient to cast one’s eyes on the voluptuous intertwining of the limbs and … we feel it a duty to warn every parent against exposing his daughter to so fatal a contagion.”

And across the ocean in Cuba, couples were doing more than just embracing. They were sensually gyrating their hips to the hypnotic rhythms of the “Rumba”, Cuba’s dance of love. If you’re new to dancing, think of the Rumba as a slowed-down version of Salsa where couples rock forward-back-sideways while moving the hips in a sensual “figure-8” action to the love songs of Gloria Estefan and Ed Sheeran. And then kissing on a sandy white beach under the light of a thousand stars.

With romance comes the promise of passion, and there is nothing more passionate than the “Tango”, Argentina’s dance of love. There are actually two main styles of Tango — Argentinian and International. Remember Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movie “True Lies”? His wife and children discovered that he was not living a boring life as a computer salesman, but was really a risk-taking international spy, saving the world with his killer “Tango” skills.
