'''Java''' ({{IPA-|fr|ʒa.va|lang}}) is a [[dance]] which was developed in France in the early part of the 20th century. The origin of its name is uncertain, but it probably evolved from the [[valse]].

Mainly performed in French [[bal-musette]] between 1910 and 1960, the dance was largely conceived due to popular demand for a new type of waltz, in particular, one which was easier, faster, more sensual, and would not require a dance hall as large as those typically used for waltzes.
