Me: *cries in historical European fiction novels
*cries in I want to be twirled in a beautiful dress by a gentleman*
Jessica Hook that’s the dream, that’s the dream
Mr Darcy and Raoul de Chagny are the two examples of perfect men
Same. 😭❤️
RECOMMEND ME SOME! I LOVE HISTORICAL FICTION. Also, have you guys read Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier? I originally hated it when I first picked it up but I have grown to become addicted.
@@pommedeterreaucitron nope but i'll be sure to check it out!!
Some historical fiction I really like:
-The Phantom of the Opera
-Pride and Prejudice
-Little Women
-The Little Princess
-Daddy Long Legs
-The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde
Imagine being danced around on a ballroom floor in a big princess dress.. a dream tbh
Omg same
same
quinceañeras experience this😛
But memorizing all the dance moves tho
Once your put their its magical you do the steps almost naturally and your just focused on the person in front of you
To be all honesty here. I'd cry my eyes out if I got to do this dance with a loved one. It's so beautiful,elegant and sweet. I'd give anything to do this
Then do it. Balls like these exist and not just rarely. Most people just don't know of their existence. if you really want to, go to a dancing school and learn it there. Especially the respected and more traditional schools often attend or organise their own balls and if not, ask your dance teacher about local or national balls. If you are in the US, it might be a bit harder than in Europe but even there, many balls are being organised and once you are in the scene, you can easily go up to 10 balls a year (if you've got enough free time of course)
Absolutely agree! The elegance and sweetness of this waltz is truly captivating. Have you checked out the works of Johann Strauss II? His waltzes are just as beautiful and perfect for dancing with a loved one. 😊
We dont have dances like these westerners dont bother about protecting their culture and traditions. leftists are out to sedate them with self hating propogandaa f*ck all apathetic attitude towards carrying on traditions.
Except they kinda change partners a few times...
Yes I got to chance to do this in my high school years n I love it
If more parties and events were like this I would fight though my anxiety to be there and participate, because everyone deserves to feel this magical.
No wonder Cinderella and the Prince fell in love in like 5 seconds.
wanna fall in love
so this is love hmmmhuummmhmmm

Sitting here judging the dresses over how well they spin 😂
Me-
I didn't even notice that I'm doing it
Same!!!
Omg samee 😂
Some dresses understood the assignment others did not
I have no idea why we as a species stopped doing this, at least comparatively as often as one may think our ancestors did back when this kind of music was being written. The class, elegance, and sophistication were truly something else. And the style. You can say what you want about their clothes, but I think they really knew how to dress for such occasions.
My ancestors were not dancing or dressing like this and neither were most peoples. Cool that youre from a noble family but most people arent.
Because westerners domt bother about protecting their culture and traditins leftists are out to sedate them with self hating culture hating propoganda.
@@icedcat4021that's not true lmao... everyone did folk dances and a lot of them were simmilar to waltzes. plus waltzes aren't just for the rich.
>we as a species.
Lol Only white people did this because they invented it, its their culture and tradition.
Its envied the world over of course cause nothing comes close to its beauty.

Aw, I'm sorry. I really believe adults should prepare children better for the neverending humdrum that is daily adult life. Like, not traumatise them with unnecessary details, but just... something.
This comment I felt in my soul. So depressing.
IF MY CLASSMATES KNEW HOW TO COOPERATE THIS COULD HAVE BEEN OUR PERFORMANCE AT OUR PROJECT HMPF
I somehow feel incredibly sorry to you...
I feel that
yes its sad especially the boys ( own experience ) they'd just laugh and slack their ass off instead of cooperating or practicing
If you know how to be a leader that could have happened
Yeah when learning to do this sort of stuff a lot of the boys slacked off and girls were complaining about who they had to dance with
Austrian here. We also had a ball during the last year of school. At first, I hated attending the dance classes. It always got so late, at the same time we had to prepare for "Matura" which is the final exam to get a degree. We also had to write a diploma thesis and loosing a whole day per week to attend dance classes was extremely stressful. But when the day came to dance in front of hundreds of people, every exhausting thing was forgotten. It was one of my best experiences I've ever had, and I can't describe how glad I was to attend the ball. I hope that this tradition will never die ❤
fühl ich, vwa war das schlimmste
Tja... bei mir war corona so wir hatten keinen ball...
Irgendwie echt schade
@@mz00956 Mah, tut mir total leid :/ Theoretisch kann man sich aber auch bei anderen Bällen anmelden (abseits von Schulbällen, es sei denn du kennst jemanden, der dort den Abschluss hat und noch nen Partner braucht). Ich geh nach wie vor noch gern auf Bälle, das ist irgendwie wie fort gehen, nur halt extrem fancy xD Würd dir das echt gönnen ❤️
@@itsciver dafür müsst ich erst mal tanzen lernen ^^ aber irgendwann mach ich es mal.
@@mz00956 hauptsächlich Walzer bei kleinen Bällen und den rest lernst dann in den Vorbereitungsstunde
Before I entered highschool, I really thought proms are like this so my standards are so damn high. Even now that I'm at highschool and waiting for prom to happen, I still dream it'll be like this ballroom dance.
Omg i have had the same dream as you! And this year I am very fortunate to say that I’m able to teach this dance to perform during prom!
Good luck to you
imagine having a crush on one of the guys
that would be magical. Literally a brilliant excuse to hold their shoulders and them holding your waist! 😂
Its your 69th like. Im going to be the 70th >:)
Damn
Learning such a routine is not nearly as romantic as you seem to imagine it 😅
"...ohh my god it's youuuuu- h-hey, NO!"
I don’t know why we ever stopped doing this. It’s almost like that planned out choreo that you only see in movies, except everyone knows what to do. It’s so cool
It’s one of the fine arts that died out. I honestly wish it hadn’t either. I feel like there should be yearly balls at least once a year where everyone knows the old dances. 🥺
In Europe, the tradition is still very alive. In my country (Czechia) most of the high schoolers (some of them opt out, because they find classic dances boring) attend one semester long classic dances courses. You attend such courses as a class and meet there pupils from other schools from your city. Throughout the semester there are about three main balls where also parents are invited.
Americans never did this. Who is "we?"
@@queerlibtardhippie9357 nobody mentioned the us, n even if sm1 did im pretty sure americans *did* do this💀
@@queerlibtardhippie9357 Yes we did you soulless cretin.
This is like stepping back in time to a different era. How wonderful to see this ballroom dancing and music. Thank you
World needs more of this.
Wow. I live in Austria, where we have hundreds of balls like that every year - and definitely not only for the upper class-, so I never realized how uncommon this whole concept of attending balls is in most other parts of the world...
Hey, Ich komm auch aus österreich😂👌 hab mir das gleiche gedacht.... Da sieht man wieder wie gut es uns hier geht😂😂 aber Spaß bei Seite, Bälle sind wirklich wundervoll, ich bin so gerne dort💕 man fühlt sich immer ein bisschen wie eine prinzessin💓
I’m moving to Austria now
@@cbeestevens5328me too, glad it not far from Czech Republic)
I'm american and i legit thought balls didn't happen anymore besides in tv and movies
Wow balls still exist??!! I mean I thought balls are only held on very very special occasions like the royal wedding or something since they have a long history:/ but damn I’ve never been to a ball and I’m not that young I assure u
When you realize that this isn't a movie and really in some part of the world some people actually had the chance to participate in something so magical in real life....
*cries tears of sorrow for not being able to dance like this*
*cries tears of joy for still getting to witness this beautiful masterpiece*
You can probably find ballroom dance classes near where you live though! There are local competitions all over the world so if you really want to do it you probably can :) It's never too late
its so beautiful and i wanna be a part of it but i also know i cant pull this off
Europeans are supreme. Their culture is envied the world over.
@@goodgoyim9459No, Europe is jealous of us.
They deserve every second and every clap of every hand in that audience. That beautiful performance required a lot of practice and discipline from these young people. And they delivered!!
It's so comforting to see humans harmonize
I can't get my eyes off of the girl who has flowy gown. When all the girls turns around, she stands out. Omg
Oh yeah I saw her.
She was the one in white.

This is how Hungarian proms look like:) Imagine this with 50+ dancing pairs, it's really fun. We learn the dance for 3 or 4 months then perform it on the big night
That is so awesome!! In Spain we don't even have proms lol
My prom in canada was a meal at a garbage hotel, everyone leaving at the second dance to go drinking or to go home. Nothing like this
Man,ur lucky
that is literally so cool
So cool
Everybody talking about how sweet it is dancing with your crush when there's me and my class enemy stepping on each other's foot and laughing at each other while trying to keep a straight face and dancing altogether 😭
enemies to lovers trope
As much as i hate dancing and social events, i really want to experience this even once in my life. And this is coming from an introvert.
2:20 the nearest girl had the PERFECT dress for this dance, the way that skirt spun is just **chef’s kiss**
Out of topic but that profile pic and that name... MDZS!!!
I know right, I was just saying if I were in a ballroom I'd wear a dress as flowy as that one.
I was focusing on her the entire time, just admiring her dress!
her twirl was perfect, coupled with her light steps, she almost looked like she was floating.
she's the main character 😁😁
The girl in the full circle skirt is clearly stealing the show tho. Such a nice movement to the dress when she twirls around.
Omg im watching her non stop too
She reminds me of the Disney princesses
Jo honey, I feel like they all stole the show, why do you have to be part of the favoritism thing. I feel like all of their dresses looked exactly the same and flowed within the same exact rate so really there’s nothing special about one specific person, they’re all special
Jo and also, all of the dancers had nice movements, it’s not just one person that “stole the show”
@@iknowexactlywhoyouare8701 what? They clearly all have very different dress shapes: full circle skirts, A-line, half circle, trumpet, etc. A feature of a full circle skirt is that when twirling the skirt flows really nicely and looks very full. That's not ""favouritism"", that's just the way fabric works. So take your condescending ""honey"" somewhere else please.
This is so well done! I miss dancing and wish there were still places where this was a regular occurrence. The grace and elegance is missed.
If only we could go back in time for such a beautiful thing like this
IT'S SAD WHEN SOMEONE ELSE IS LIVING YOUR DREAM.
But I'm happy for them tho! Maybe one day we will get our chance buddy
@@julynene4237 I HOPE YES
You can still have it. Reach for it by any means necessary.
IKR IM CRYING I WANT THIS
IT IS.
If I’m one of the ladies I would be smiling and giggling like a fool because this is everything.
Exactly!🤪
SAME. I wouldn't be able to keep a straight face.
Everything I ever dreamed of what prom should be. But my school's got other ideas😂😭😭😭 it's fun yeah...but it lacks *this*
And I've yet to experience a waltz in my life
what I would give to experience this atleast once. I've been to these balls when I was like 6 so atleast 8 years ago. I wasn't allowed to dance but I saw the other ladies do it and I was so jealous, they seemed to be having the time of their lives
OMG SAME and I plan on using this for my quince (no one attack me, I just wanna feel like a princess on my special day)
There's philosophy in ballroom dance, and it's beautiful.
I'm imagining the most intense moment between our two main characters, and how Waltz was the most intimate dance of the regency HRs.
How they felt the most of the tension unrivalling between their bodies, the gentle swish of her gown against his breeches, the subtle brush of her bosom against his chest when they spinned, their hands clasped, feet moving in harmony while staring intensely into each other's eyes, his hands firmly gripping her waist. Indulged in one of the finest conversation while they fall slowly for each other.
It seems like in every HR I've read, if the heroine is trying to evade the hero, or they both are avoiding it for some reasons, the luck would have it that they both would get waltz as their first dance. Because it involves the most physical touch according to books. How romantic. Sighs.
@@makatsue4598Well, these people are definitely not wearing regency dress lol. And the waltz wasn’t actually popular during the regency period. It didn’t become popular until later in the 19th century.
But regency dances were still very physical! You definitely would have been working up a sweat if you were dancing all night!
Imagine dancing with the man you love then being handled to your ex after few seconds
I wouldn't have any problems with that. I like my ex, he's a good man but not for me. And he was the best one to dance with so I'd be quite happy to dance with him 😊
@SaMa777 Oh that's sweet 🥺 hope you found your special person
It's nice to see good closures
Oh no
Or the opposite, that would be sweet 😍
😂😂😂
After this corona, can we organise one of these to calm our nerves. ...
Who is in.
I’m down, seriously, liike it’s necessary to do this at least once in my life.💃🏻😩
Where and when?
I'm a 1.50 guy (very tiny) live in U.S
Yes, me too, I’m starting my planning now!
Me 😭🙋
Sign me up!
This dance and this composition is so beautiful. It's a damn shame that ballroom dance is considered uncommon nowadays.
I love how they sync up and its so pretty how the dresses spin and how their circle of dancers just move so beautiful and awesome!Their movements are the best!
Anyone else loving the way her dress turns? The one in the middle at 2:24 couldn’t stop looking at her dress throughout the whole video. I’ve always wanted to wear a dress like that.
Hehe I've been watching her the whole time
same here!!
She’s wearing a full circle skirt and so it flows a lot better then the others skirts. The fabric is thinner aswell and so it spreads out more when you twirl.
I literally commented the same thing. I'm in love with the dress. It moves so beautifully and so does she
Yess i was about to comment this
The closest things Americans experienced to this is learning goddamn square dancing in PE in like middle school.
You guys learnt square dancing ?! At my school we learn ye ol game of dodgeball before it was banned in 2013
actually from 1700’s - 1950’s they had balls like this in america, mostly in the victorian era.
Dyingggg
To be fair, square dancing is fun. Ball dancing would be way cooler though. I wonder how hard it would be to find ball dancing lessons where I live...
@@theroadtocosplayandcomicco5840 it’s banned at your school we always play at mine
oh god i can literally watch these dances whole day i was so invested my eyes started watering THIS IS BEAUTIFUL
I wish I learnt to dance like this I hope this music stays around for ever. Everyone in this dance looks beautiful
And that was considered grinding back in the 18th century.
Lol i'd say it was more accepted than grinding
Actually, it was the 19th century (before that, there was no waltz), and dancing wasn't quite as formal in Vienna - people held on to each other pretty tightly. Add to that the prominence of VERY low-cut dresses in the fashion of the time, and you get an idea of why it was considered so scandalous. ;)
@m h This is the funniest comment I have ever read in my entire life
artman40 you’ve ruined it😂
m h oh wtf
No joke, I often wish it would still be normal to dance like this and that there were more balls etc. This looks and feels so much better than going to grind in some crammed club. Imagine finding the love of your life at such a dance. The dream of every Jane Austen fan.
Actually this was never common among normal Americans because only the ultra rich are invited to attend balls. Balls still exist today it’s just that we’re too poor to be invited.
how’d u know???!
@@maraudersarebest6806 where i live, we still dance like that! And yes, I found my love when he asked me to waltz. I felt like Cinderella!
I agree I love pride and prejudice. If only life was like how it was back then. 💭

This is just beautiful!!

it is considered a failure and great disappointment of this human race that we have allowed ballroom dancing of any kind to become so uncommon.
just a name
yeah, but it’s sad that they aren’t common anymore.
Because now it would be everyone dancing instead of just wealthy people.
And to be honest, dancing now a days is kind of unimpressive when all they do is dance sexually
I don’t mean to be rash or anything, but the way people dance now just makes me sad tbh
just a name
Oof
For us in Vienna it’s the most common thing ever! Every teenager that I know learned how to ballroom dance... we even have a ball season
@just a name explore on your on, you'll have a far better time and really understand life and culture there rather than the tourist traps
@just a name it's far cheaper trust me, but it isn't as planned as with a guide, and guides will have lots of info as well, it's a trade off really 🤗
The music and dancing were superb. Loved watching this video.
the dance was executed so beautifully and the accompaniment was absolutely fantastic !!!
So did anybody get this in the recommendation feed or just me? Just me ok
No, I did too
Me too lol
Searched for it😅
I got it in my recommended feed
i searched for it since i love learning things like these
If I had the opportunity to do this I would accept in a heartbeat

Thank you for the share of class and style. Such a beautiful dance, especially when spotting those ladies who held their arms upright, not resting one the gents arms.
As a participant of few Ball i adore this event. It is so magical and inspiring. The backstage of every dance are few months of repetitions. But the result - the magic of the dance.
when I was little I always thought prom would be like this 😭😂 and that idea only grew even more when I watched the 4th Harry Potter movie .. after that when it came to all those high school shows and movies it changed to amazing dancing 🕺🏻 on the floor to sick 70s and 80s/90s songs 🙌🏻 similar to footloose
and ..
then there was the great disappointment
right, no prom at all
in Hungary our “proms” are like this but as beautiful as it is it’s actually that stressful too (at least for me)😅

Ballroom dancing will always be my favorite, there is just so much elegance and beauty in it! the matching moves between men and women and the clothes and the dances it's just too much for my heart XD

I wish this too, but at the same time I don't think I have enough coordination for this :')
@@arivera857 Ah, but 'tis in practice that one gains coordination! That is how all people start. If this type of dancing were still incorporated into our culture/society, we would likely have learned the steps in our childhood.

@@caroline-pm4mo Same
I'm from Germany and my school offered dancing courses for everyone to join before prom :-) There was no big performance as it wasn't mandatory but still great that night!
Also these balls are still a very, very, very important and big thing in Vienna! I was there last year for my semester abroad and balls where advertised everywhere. Unfortunately I could not go to one because of Finals but when Covid is over and I refreshed my dancing skills a bit, I really want to go with my boyfriend 😊
the girl who's dress twirled so beautifully stole the show for me with her dress. i loved it so much, it was just so perfect in my eyes on how it moved as she spun. i'm not a fan of limp dresses that barely move when the wearer is being spun, so she definitely caught my eye.
Circle patters sure are pretty But they do eat up a ton of fabric
I'm afraid I couldn't keep my eyes off the 2 girls dresses that looked too tight for the crinolin or hoop skirt. Honestly a little static guard please.
same! you can't keep your eyes off her when she twirls!
Which girl I cant seem to figure it out ??
Mark lee the one in the bottom center at 8:06 i think
Awe this makes me happy to watch this! So much beauty and grace!
A beautiful performance, very emotional and they all have a chemistry in each partner.You have great charisma please keep this, as this will distinguish you from other dancers.You put your heart and soul into the dance. Its very beautiful and really good to watched i love it!

1:37 theyre so mesmerizing to watch, i dont know why (partners at the front middle)
I cant believe how amazed I am by this
As a classical musician who's not from Vienna, I've always been somewhat detached when playing waltzes - as though my interpretation was lacking even though I knew it was a dance. It's only now by seeing how the dancers twirl around and the skirts swish about and the gracefulness of their steps did I fully understand how waltzes really are..so thank you very much for this. It was an eye opener and a learning experience.
No, they are not professionals. They are advanced beginners or intermediates.
The alignment, posture, lines, & movement of professionals is dramatically different.
So you do not have to be a professional dancer to look good.....& have a great time!
Thank you for the information !
But their formations were pretty good. I’m honestly baffled how they managed to learn an 8 minute routine without learning anything about body contact or other ballroom technique.
This is so beautiful, I love it.
You can see how well they spin because of the sway of their dress, its kinda like in a royal dance in movies
This already feels like a fantasy, but it feel MORE impactful when you haven’t seen a hall full of people like that in more than a year, and a full on human contact generally.
Why can't we have more of this in every big city in the Western world? I'd like to both watch it with different dresses each time and dance in it with all the practice that it takes. It's a beautiful way to exercise.

They said that they do this everyday in Australia.

Words can't express how badly i want to do this.
Like just once in my life i want to ballroom dance, but like in historically accurate dresses and shit. Like i want to experience the whole thing, just once and i would be happy. Better yet a masquerade themed ball.
The place for you to go to is Vienna. The most famous ball is the Opernball at the Vienna opera house. It is a classical debutante ball where the young ladies of society are presented. It is quite expensive to go tho' and a terrible crush. But there are loads and loads of balls during the season (from Christmas to Ash Wednesday).
Same. Like once in my life with the love of my life!
Samee! Just once! Srsly no words r enough to describe this need

+pitot1988 that is a sacrifice I'm gladly willing to make
+Dua Zainab you're right, there was no ONE specific time, but various times throughout history societies had spikes of demand for yes, lavish clothing, furniture etc, and attending venues such as balls -.-, think before you type and be a buzzkill
+Dua Zainab ..... I never said everyone attended balls though? I'm fully aware that not everyone was able to participate, but that's my point! Balls back then were extremely lavish for that very reason, I highly doubt balls of today have got anything on what balls were like back then XD
