The pattern of the dance while optional, must be skated with well rounded lobes as there is sometimes a tendency to cut off or flatten the lobes and it is very necessary to maintain a consistent flow over the ice throughout the execution of this lilting dance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The weight of the dancers should be over the correct part of the blade, with an upright carriage and not lunging or rocking forward and backwards on the turns. Unison throughout is of particular importance and there is a tendency to be awkward moving from one new position to another, which should always be accomplished without any perceivable effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inventors \u2013 Natalia Dubova, Marina Klimova and Sergei Ponomarenko<br \/>First Performance \u2013 Moscow Cup 1987, Moscow USSR<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Music \u2013 Viennese Waltz 3\/4Tempo \u2013 62 measures of 3 beats per minutePattern \u2013 optionalDuration \u2013 The time required to skate 2 sequences is 1:58 min.
