2S: Continual Overhead Turns

In this Two Step tutorial, Anthony and Chelsea break down one of Anthony’s favorite go-to moves — a super fun, spin-heavy pattern that’s all about control, connection, and clean technique. Followers, you’re gonna be turning a lot in this one, so if you’re not a fan of spins, might be time to find a waltz. But if you’re down for the challenge, this one’s a blast. This pattern features multiple turns in a row, a hand change that flips mid-turn (and flips back), and a smooth exit back to closed position — and it’s all based on one key thing: a good lead. Leaders will learn how to manage spacing, control momentum, and use their footwork — specifically Shanae-style turns — to stay connected through the chaos. Anthony also shares a golden tip about hand connection using what he calls the “sweet spot,” and how staying in that pocket with your middle fingers makes the whole pattern work. It’s a fun one, a bit technical, and something you can loop as many times as you want before transitioning out. It’s not for total beginners, but if you’ve got your basics down, this is one you’ll want to add to your toolkit.
