An Intro To The Country Dances
- English (US)
If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to country dance but had no idea where to start—this is it. In this video, Anthony and Rose break down the world of country dancing in the most beginner-friendly way possible. Whether you’ve never set foot on a dance floor or you’re just curious what all the different dances are, this gives you a solid foundation. You’ll get an intro to all the major styles of country dancing: Two Step (the classic progressive partner dance), Country Swing (a more modern, freestyle spot dance full of spins and dips), Line Dancing (solo dances done in sync to music), and West Coast Swing (a stylish, musically expressive partner dance done in a slot). Each one is explained clearly—with examples and advice on where and how each dance is usually done. You’ll learn the key differences between progressive vs. spot dances, and what kind of music and vibe fits each style. It’s a great overview for anyone who’s new to the scene or looking to get friends involved. If you want to dance at country bars, weddings, or festivals, this video will help you know what’s what—and where to start.
2S: The 1.5 Turn Rule
- English (US)
This video is a game-changer. Anthony and Rose break down one of the biggest misconceptions in country Two Step: the idea that a follower's turn should only rotate 1 full turn and stop while still facing the leader. If you were taught that way—don’t worry, most people were—but that “shortcut” is secretly holding you back. Instead, this lesson introduces the default assumption every follower should learn: 1.5 turns. That means if you start facing forward, you finish facing backward—and vice versa. This becomes the foundation for virtually every Two Step turn and unlocks patterns you didn’t even realize you were missing. You’ll learn the difference between actual “lead and follow” vs “pattern memorization,” why assumptions matter in social dance, and how teaching the wrong turn early on can wreck your whole framework later. They also demonstrate how 1.5 turns open the door to free spins, sweetheart exits, multiple turns, and improvisation—without requiring the follower to memorize every move. If you’re serious about improving your Two Step turns, or if you’re a teacher who wants your students to advance beyond beginner forever, this is the video to watch. And yes… they even show it all to music.
2S: Advanced Basic Steps
- English (US)
This is the Two Step video you’ve been waiting for. Whether you're brand new or you've been dancing a while but feel stuck, Anthony and Rose will completely change how you look at Two Step. You’ll learn the entire system that powers 90% of the dance—from basic steps to turns, hand changes, and pattern combinations. Best of all? It’s way simpler than it looks. Inside this lesson, you’ll discover that Two Step isn’t about learning 100 different patterns—it’s about understanding three core moves: rhythmical walking, turning your partner one and a half to the right, and turning her one and a half to the left. That’s it. Everything else? Just remixing those same three things with different hand holds and styling. You'll watch Anthony and Rose break it down piece by piece, demonstrating how these same steps can be used to create impressive combinations like sweetheart patterns, patty cake holds, shoulder catches, barrel rolls, and more. The entire video is designed to simplify what seems complex and give you the confidence to dance anywhere, anytime. It’s fun, it’s real, and it’s gonna make you a better Two Step dancer—fast.
2S: Core Concepts
- English (US)
If you’ve ever watched a couple Two Stepping and thought, “How the heck are they doing all that?” — this video is gonna blow your mind… in the best way. Anthony and Rose show how nearly everything in Two Step boils down to just three basic actions: rhythmical walking, turning her one and a half times to the right, and turning her one and a half times to the left. That’s it. No complicated memorization. No endless list of patterns. Just those three moves, done in different ways, with different hand changes. This is the foundation of their entire Two Step system. You’ll also learn what they call “The Three Assumptions” — the default things every follower should expect unless the leader specifically changes them: direction, rhythm, and degree of turn. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or confused by other lessons you’ve taken in the past, this is the one that’ll hit reset and make Two Step actually make sense. It’s all about simplifying, not stacking more patterns on top. Once you get this framework, everything else becomes easier, smoother, and a whole lot more fun.
2S: The Secret Basics
- English (US)
If you've ever thought about learning to dance but felt overwhelmed, this is where that changes. In this down-to-earth beginner Two Step lesson, Anthony and Rose break everything down to the absolute basics—and we mean basics. You’ll learn the three core building blocks that make up 90% of everything you’ll ever see on a Two Step floor: rhythmical walking, turning her to the right, and turning her to the left. That’s it. You’ll see how simple footwork and clear rhythm can open the door to everything from basic social dancing to impressive-looking spins and turns. Even advanced patterns are just clever combinations of these same three elements. This lesson was built for real people—not dance robots. Whether you're just starting out or giving dance another shot after a frustrating experience, you’ll find out pretty quick that it’s not as complicated as it seems. And once you get the feel for this rhythm, you’ll be surprised how fast things start to click. This is the perfect place to start your dance journey—or restart it—and build confidence right from step one.
2S: Shoulder and Elbow Catch
- English (US)
In this lesson, Anthony and Rose teach a slick Two Step pattern that’s perfect for dancers in that sweet spot between novice and intermediate. It’s built around a shoulder catch and elbow catch combo that flows straight into a partner pivot and inside turn — but don’t worry, it’s easier than it sounds once you see it broken down. They start with a basic outside turn that rolls right into a shoulder catch, explaining how to keep things smooth (hint: it’s all in the rotation and receiving her, not “catching” her). From there, you’ll learn how to transfer that connection into a low elbow catch, redirect her momentum, and walk her into a pivot that feels seamless — if you keep your spacing and tension right. This move teaches more than just steps. You’ll get tips on timing changes, rotational technique, maintaining frame, counterbalance, and how to make the pattern feel crisp and effortless. Plus, you’ll see how connection and body position play a bigger role than just memorizing footwork. This is one of those combos that adds a ton of style and substance to your social dancing — and once it clicks, it’s super fun to lead or follow.
2S: Advanced Basics

This video will change how you understand the rhythm of Two Step — whether you’re brand new or have been dancing for decades. Anthony and Rose dig deep into what the real rhythm of Two Step is, why the basic “quick-quick slow-slow” is just the assumed rhythm, and how the actual structure gives you way more freedom than you probably thought. You'll learn why starting with slow-slow feels off, what “quicks until slow or slows” means, and how rhythm and timing aren’t the same thing (yes, there’s a difference). They also talk about how to recognize where a pattern begins and ends, how the follower knows what to do when the lead stops leading, and how to create contrast in your dancing using quicker quicks and slower slows. If you’ve ever wondered why one couple looks faster or smoother than another — even dancing to the same song — this video breaks down that mystery too. It’s packed with lightbulb moments, a little sass, and a whole lot of real-world insight that’ll help you unlock the next level in your Two Step dancing.

This video is a creative breakdown of how to take one foundational Two Step move and unlock four different variations from it. Anthony and Rose use this lesson to show dancers how small changes in hand position, rotation, or exit direction can completely change the look and feel of a pattern—without having to relearn footwork from scratch. The core of this video is versatility. You’ll start with a basic move and then explore how to lead it from different handholds, flip the direction, or add a stylish variation to the ending.

Rose offers great tips for followers on how to stay responsive and read subtle lead cues. This is the kind of video that helps intermediate dancers become more adaptable and confident. Instead of memorizing more choreography, you’ll learn how to think like a dancer—spotting opportunities in the moment to switch things up. Smart, simple, and super usable.
2S: The 3 Basic Steps
- English (US)
In this video, Anthony and Rose are filming from the gorgeous Cheval Winery in Escondido, California, wrapping up the first leg of their Two Step Boot Camp Tour. They’re giving a full recap of the material they taught during their three Two Step boot camps—and it's the kind of stuff every dancer should have down. This lesson focuses on the core of what makes Two Step work: rhythmical walking, a one-and-a-half turn to the right, and a one-and-a-half turn to the left. These three patterns are the foundation of 90% of what dancers will do on the floor. If someone can really understand and internalize these, they’ll be set for just about any Two Step combo.
