Two-Step for Beginners Vol. 1 DVD Video
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

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

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

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

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
