Round Dancing on Ice in Vienna

Round Dancing on the Ice is very unique. It is danced in a dance circle either in pairs or in groups. The various step sequences are freely interpreted to the rhythm of the music. Round Dancing on Ice is not a competitive sport and has no set rules. It most closely resembles a social dance transferred to the ice. We dance it for the joy of movement.

Rounddance

As the name implies, the round dance is danced in a circle. You dance counterclockwise - very rarely also clockwise ;-) The round dance is danced for about 150 years at the "Wiener Eislaufverein" (Vienna Ice Skating Club) in Vienna and also in Munich. Similar to a ball, the gentlemen asks the ladies for a dance - no fixed partner is required. The individual dances, which are danced in the dance circle are partly very easy to learn. It is neither a performance sport nor competitions sport - round dance is danced because of the desire for the movement.

Getting started is relatively easy. Moving forward and backward and one or two steps and you can already dance a waltz on the ice ...
