BEG TWOSTEP- Daryl
Prerequisite: None
The
Texas Twostep is the most important Country and Western dance. It is easy
to learn and fun to use. From George Strait's "Fool Hearted
Memory" to Shania Twain's "Holding onto Love", the Twostep
is used to a wide variety of C&W music.
When
you live in Houston, Texas, you should get plenty of
opportunities where a little knowledge of the Twostep will come in pretty
handy. And the Twostep is a fixture at Rodeo time. Come
learn the fundamentals of this famous dance !
INT TWOSTEP/POLKA CIRCLE TURNS
– Linda
Prerequisite: Beg Two-Step/Polka
This is an intermediate course for students who have already
have taken our Beginner Twostep/Polka course. Circle Turns are a
big part of Western dancing. In fact, there is a similarity to
Circle Turns and Tequila drinking challenges. Men learn Circle
Turns to make the girls dizzy and weaken their resistance. Women
learn to turn well to keep their wits about them and to put men
in their proper place. This course covers all the tricks to the
multiple clockwise and counter clockwise Circle Turns including
Cross Steps, Braces, Spotting, and Cross Body Leads.
BEG WESTERN WALTZ
- Jill
Prerequisite:
None
Western Waltz is considered the "Romantic" Western dance. The
stakes being what they are, no sensible man should ignore this important
dance! The moves are quite graceful and the music
is very pretty.
Western
Waltz patterns are taken from Ballroom Waltz. Some
Waltz patterns travel and others such as the Box Step are danced in one
area. Western Waltz moves include
the Ballroom Waltz patterns that
automatically "travel" around the floor
just as a Twostep or Polka would. At the
party later on expect plenty of Western Waltzes like “You Look So Good in
Love” and “Open Arms” to practice to at the dance party.
ADVANCED
HUSTLE PATTERNS
- Scott
Prerequisite:
at least a month of Hustle classes
Scott is
the master. Have fun.
DIRTY DANCING - Ben
Prerequisite:
Couples Only
This
"Dirty Dancing" is unquestionably one of the most popular
Crash Courses in the history of the studio.
The moves are taken directly
from Patrick Swayze's most famous movie.
Each pattern would be quite impressive to watch if we could just
get everyone to quit laughing so hard!!
Yes, the
moves are quite sexy, but everyone has too much fun to take them
seriously. Bring a smile and an open mind. You will have a ball!
ROMANTIC WESTERN SWING
PTNS - Rick
Prerequisite:
some Adv
Western Swing
There
are many wonderful Western Swing patterns such as Cuddles, Skaters
and Sweetheart where the lady is not exactly in the man's arms, but
on the other hand you couldn't say they are dancing apart either.
Cuddles, Skaters and Sweetheart are not just cool places to be,
there are many WONDERFUL moves! In particular we will
concentrate not only on going back and forth between these
positions, but going from the right side to the left side as well.
It will all be so Romantic!
