Country Swing is Easy and Fun!
Country Swing, sometimes mistakenly called two step, is our favorite partner dance because it is insanely enjoyable and super simple to learn. It uses a very simple step and incorporates all of the thrilling dance steps that are popular in the other forms of country dance.
Our teachers make learning simple and are very patient, ensuring that you will leave full of confidence. Our dance lessons are packed with everything you need to get out on the dance floor tonight or dancing in your kitchen for years to come!
Many folks mistakenly call country swing “two step” when they are completely separate dances. They are often incorporated together, hence the confusion.
We typically recommend learning country swing instead of two-step because it is far more versatile and much easier to learn. You don’t need to have any rhythm and you will still look amazing. However, if you prefer to learn two step, contact us for private lessons.

We focus on teaching you the basics of two step and country swing in a fun, positive atmosphere so you can head to any dance hall and have fun night after night. The lessons themselves are so much fun you’ll forget you are in a…well…a lesson.
