Infectious Enthusiasm

When Joe first saw Beth on the dance floor at the Little Longhorn, he was mesmerized by her hips swaying and twirling to the music. "I'd never seen a woman built like that move like that," he thought to himself. She knew the words to every song and made heads turn with her confidence. Beth had a twinkle in her eye and an infectious smile that lit up the room. Her energy and enthusiasm were part of her undeniable charm.

Here's a step-by-step guide to the Texas Two-Step:

Get Ready to Dance: Now it's your chance to join the fun and see what all the fuss is about—no boots or 10-gallon hat necessary, just bring a fun attitude!

Find Your Partner: Find a friend and face each other, joining hands with the leader facing forward.

Start Dancing: When the music starts, the leader steps forward with their left foot, and the follower steps back with their right foot—like a mirror image.

Keep in Sync: Continue with left, together, left, then right steps, grooving to the honky-tonk beat. Take small steps and keep it relaxed. This is your moment to smile and enjoy yourself.

Circle Around: The dance floor moves progressively to the left in a counterclockwise circle, so keep scooting those boots.

Try an Overhead Turn: For an overhead turn, the leader lifts their left hand up, and the follower dips their head and goes under the rainbow.

Resume and Switch It Up:After the turn, both leader and follower resume with left, together, left, then right. Remember, you're always better dancers than the folks sitting down!If you'd rather be the leader, fantastic—switch places and keep scootin’.

Get ready to Two-Step like true Texans- with a grin!
