Dance sports WALTZ IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION waltz with a change of waltzing direction. The cavalier takes the first three waltz steps one, in ordinary waltz turns, i.e. to the right, but these turns should be considered only as a preparatory movement, as if an introduction. Then he immediately begins the next 6 steps of the waltz with his left foot, making a turn in the opposite direction, i.e. to the left, while the lady, starting with her right foot, contributes to the completion of this reverse turn (A. Zorn).
