Viennese Waltz

The Viennese Waltz is a rotary dance where the dancers are constantly turning either in a clockwise (natural) or anti-clockwise (reverse) direction interspersed with non-rotating change steps to switch between the direction of rotation. A true Viennese waltz consists only of turns and change steps. Other moves such as the fleckerls, American-style figures and side sway or underarm turns are modern inventions and are not normally danced at the annual balls in Vienna. Furthermore, in a properly danced Viennese Waltz, couples do not pass, but turn continuously left and right while travelling counterclockwise around the floor following each other. 

Quickstep

Quickstep is a dynamic dance with a lot of movement around the dance floor, with many advanced patterns including hops, runs, quick steps with a lot of momentum, syncopated steps, and rotation. The tempo of Quickstep dance is rather brisk as it was developed to ragtime era jazz music which was fast-paced.  It developed in the 1920s from a combination of Foxtrot, Charleston, and other dances.
