Boot Scoot’n Basics: Texas Honky Tonk Two-Step Class

COME LEARN THE DANCE THAT MAKES AUSTIN FEEL LIKE AUSTIN

One of Austin's most amazing qualities is its honky tonk dance culture. Have you always wanted to try Texas Two-Step? Have you been secretly yearning to glide across a dance floor instead of standing on the sidelines? 

Well, look no further! 

In this beginner-friendly class, you'll learn true Texas Honky Tonk Two-Step fundamentals: partner connection, lead and follow technique, building and controlling momentum, and executing smooth, confident turns. Meadow and John will break things down step-by-step so you understand not just what to do, but how the rotation and rhythm actually work. 

This is partner dancing, not line dancing. No rows. No grapevines. We travel the floor like real Texans. Expect repetition, rhythm, and plenty of clockwise confidence. Bring a partner, or rotate among the class. Wear your best dance socks so you can glide like you mean it.

Stay afterwards for complimentary Bawi Agua Frescas!
