Tips & Warnings
These steps are for the leader. The partner will do the opposite steps. For example, if the leader steps forward with the left foot, the partner will step back with the left.
The two-step - even what the dance is called - varies from region to region.
Your feet should barely leave the ground; slide rather than take full steps.
It's the leader's responsibility to watch where you're going.
