What is the "telemark"?
The telemark is a dance step used in ballroom dancing, especially in the waltz and other smooth dances. It involves a specific movement where the dancer steps forward with one foot, then brings the other foot next to it while slightly bending the knees. The step creates a flowing, gliding effect, often used to transition between different parts of the dance. The telemark is known for its elegant and smooth quality, allowing dancers to maintain a continuous and graceful movement across the dance floor. It is named after the telemark skiing technique, which also involves a smooth, curved motion.
