Two-Step for Beginners Vol. 1 Video

DVD Only - $29.99
Two-Step for Beginners Volume 1 offers the easiest and most thorough instruction for anyone wanting to learn the two-step (aka Texas Two-Step), the most popular country western dance outside of line dancing.

Each volume in the series is professional, easy to follow, designed specifically for beginners and fun for everyone. With nearly 1½ hours of instruction, multiple camera views, and an easy navigational menu, Shawn and Joanna Trautman will build your confidence and have you dancing along with them… literally.

The design of the curriculum and camera placement for the DVDs allows the leaders to do the EXACT movements that Shawn presents, and it allows the followers to mimic Joanna in real time without having to turn away from the screen. In addition to learning along with the instructors with split-screen formatting, you'll also get to dance each dance with music alongside the instructors at the end of each section.

Two-Step for Beginners Volume 1 covers everything from how to do quicks and slows, what the footwork is for both leaders and followers, how to properly use the four connection points, how to turn on corners, what drills are best for practicing on your own, the importance of stopping on the dance floor, how to do mirrored vines, wraps, torque turns, forward and back presentations and much, much more.

With nearly two decades of experience, a number of World Champion students to their credit, and their recently published book “Picture Yourself Dancing: Step-by-Step Instruction for Ballroom, Latin, Country, and More”, Shawn and Joanna have perfected the basic elements of each dance while specializing in the leading and following aspects which are extremely hard to find.

Shawn and Joanna will demonstrate, explain, and teach you to lead and follow the Two-Step so you can dance anywhere with anyone, rather than just learning a single step that can only be done with your partner. This innovative DVD series teaches the basics and the most essential steps for beginners at a slow and steady pace, which is perfect for gift-giving to friends, family, co-workers, or yourself.

This DVD is best used as a starting point that will help you quickly accelerate your way through Shawn Trautman's Two-Step Collection and/or Shawn Trautman's Dance Collection in its entirety where you'll have your choice of more than 20 highly-rated full-length dance instruction DVDs. Owning this DVD is the equivalent of having your own private instruction at home – over and over and over. If you're looking to learn to Two-Step from proven instructors and not just see flashy competition moves that are near impossible to execute, then Beginner Volume 1 is for you. Once you're comfortable with this DVD, you'll want to look into Beginner Volume 2 as it seamlessly adds on to everything you learned in Volume 1 to rapidly gain confidence based on consistency and repetition.
