International Standard Bronze Waltz Variations & Techniques is a training program designed to help dancers expand their Bronze Waltz vocabulary through practical variations and technical applications. Presented by Victor Veyrasset and Heather Smith, the course demonstrates how familiar Bronze syllabus figures can be combined into more advanced sequences while maintaining correct technique, alignment, and partnership principles.
The material focuses on creating flowing combinations from commonly used Waltz figures such as Natural Turns, Running Finishes, Chassés, Open Telemarks, Weaves, Hover Cortes, Whisks, and Promenade actions. Each variation includes alternative exits that allow dancers to develop flexibility and creativity within Bronze-level choreography.
