Nightclub Two Step Dance Classes
Nightclub Two-Step is a partner dance that is danced to slower songs and is one of the easiest dances we teach at the dance barn. It is a romantic dance, consisting of triple-steps set to popular music. It enables couples to glide over the dance floor with simplicity and grace. Often wedding couples choose it for their first dance because it is so easy and beautiful and it goes well to the love songs of today.
History
Nightclub two step (sometimes also called disco two step or california two step) was developed by Buddy Schwimmer in the mid-1960s. The dance became extremely popular in the disco era as a social dance
