Die Woaf (Austria)

Formation

Couples face anticlockwise round the room, with the lady on the gentleman's right. Couples join hands with each other, the lady puts both hands in the air at about head height and the man holds her left hand with his left hand in front of his chest and he holds her right hand with his right hand just to the right of her head, taking hold of her hand from behind.

Instructions

  1. Do 2 side steps towards the centre, and look at each other in the eyes from the lady's left.
  2. Do 2 side steps out of the centre, men taking bigger steps than the lady from the lady's right.
  3. Ladies twist round the back of the man without letting go hands ending up in the same position to when you started the dance. Try to keep looking into each others eyes all the time.
  4. Start the dance again.
