This was the best thing I’ve ever done.

“I purchased the 2-Step basics videos Vol. 1, 2, and 3 and it is one of the very best things I ever did! I liked the single focus and how in depth it got. After using these instructional videos for a couple of weeks, I went out and danced the 2-Step very well. Many of the women I danced with thought I was an experienced dancer. When I told them this was my first time, they could not believe it!! I have been a classroom teacher for forty years and I know the value of learning something right the first time! If you want to learn the 2-Step the right way, Shawn’s videos are the way too go!!”

The same value as private instruction

“These DVDs are so good. With 3 discs, Shawn has time to dive into the numerous fundamental details of 2-step, instead of cramming everything onto 1 disc. Each DVD is divided into several sections for easy use.

Volume 1 is a complete breakdown of the 6-beat, 4-step count (quick/quick/slow/slow). Shawn covers a lot of material you need to know: your speed, the size of your steps, positioning, he gives you drills, details the four connection points you and your dance partner will share, he shows you a mirroring exercise, how to turn left and turn right, and more.

Volume 2 covers the different types of leads, the left turn, side by side into cape (sweetheart) position, left turn into wrap, promenade, and more. Shawn gives you little pieces to practice, demostrating with and w/o music, breaking down each hand or foot movement. BTW it’s nice to listen to today’s country music songs Shawn plays in the background as he instructs.

Volume 3 introduces prep steps, torque turns, 1/2 turns, single turns, 1.5 turns, and more. Shawn ties all of the prior 2-step concepts together, such as when to use the moves, and what happens as a lead that can cause you to not stop her turn, and there are plenty of drills to help you practice.

It’s also very helpful that Shawn repeats the moves he teaches, so you don’t necessarily have to stop or pause the dvd every few seconds, you can keep it running forward, and each time he repeats a move, he adds new tips each time. These 3 DVDs also help prepare you for the longer moves and intermediate/advanced pattern dvds in Shawn’s collection, I can’t wait to order them and practice!”

Don’t be afraid to lead!

“My husband and I have been trying to learn to dance at the old age of 50 – “It can be difficult to teach an old dog new tricks.” Shawn’s break down of how to do the steps & how to confidently LEAD them has given my husband the courage and skill to keep learning! Shawn teaches how to put the moves together. The result? A husband less overwhelmed by his responsibilites of leading, and more FUN on the dance floor! Our teens have preferred the faster moving “Two-Step 101″. They both have different moves beyond the basic step taught on them so it is worth it to own both if you have different ages learning in your house. It has been SO great to be a able to practice in our own home, and on our own time. The teaching is so well done we will be getting more for the different styles of dance.”

You can LEARN TO DANCE!!

“This DVD set is excellent for learning the two-step. Shawn breaks the basics down in such a way that it is almost like having private lessons. Shawn makes you feel like he is right in your living room!! I am attending group lessons but I learned so much more from watching Shawn in this video. I am so excited I am going to order the complete set and the WEST COAST SWING and share with friends! I had a friend who I thought was hopeless and after watching volume one he got up and danced exactly to the beat… something he did not do at the actual lessons we attended! Thank you SHAWN!!”

Great Stuff

“We were new to country dancing when we bought our first set of Shawn Trautman’s videos several years ago, which literally got us out on the floor and dancing. We recently bought the new 3 Disc Set 2-step basic video series and, just like the other videos that we already own, this set is great. We are now planning to order the 10 video 2-step Intermediate and Advanced series. Thank you Shawn Trautman for getting us on the flooring and dancing the 2-step.”

These Basics Are Solid

“I also want to add that the basics was an excellent foundation and here’s why. My girlfriend is an experienced solo dancer in multiple styles (line, hip hop, lyrical, etc.). But she is not very experienced in couples dancing. When I was using your basics DVDs the very beginning of the summer, I had near no knowledge of dancing. I just started some line dancing at country western bars. With that background considered, I looked at your DVDs mainly by myself. My girlfriend was very busy but also a little impatient to sit through the DVDs, she’ll admit. She would say, “I’m a good listener.” She is generally great at winging-it since she is a fast learner and adjuster. I’m the opposite, I am a slow learner but I have a great memory. Here is my point. After I got a solid understanding of the steps by myself, I practiced my garage a few times with my girlfriend and it was incredibly easy for me to describe what I was going to do, whether a step, prep, or turn. Because the DVDs move at a snail’s pace, it was very easy for me to understand not only where to step, but weight shift and hand position. I have tried picking up line dances on youtube but the steps and weight shifting runs together and I cant pick it up properly. Also, because you reveal common misconceptions and bad habits, it was easy to spot. Next thing you know, we go dancing and I only do half turns the entire night. Then, I work on cape and wrap only. We start cleaning up the steps. The basics you gave me were so solid, that it has been very easy to add more to my dancing menu. Thank you!”

2-Step It’s easy enough for anyone

“This 3 Volume set of dance instruction was very well organized in not only the dance instruction, but also in the way the DVDs were formatted. A lot of the material (especially on disc 1) is extremely slow paced and basic which is good if you’re a beginner that needs to learn 2-Step from the ground up. Each DVD is broken up into 3 separate lessons. If you get bored with the slow paced, step by step instruction you can skip the lesson and go strait into the moves by selecting “Review” from the main menu on each DVD. Additionally, each lesson is followed up by bonus and practice features that you can select to learn additional moves and positions as well as receive suggestions of how to practice and master the 2-step in a variety of drills that you can do at home, while seated, or even while pushing a cart at the grocery store. This DVD set is a must whether you are an absolute beginner or you already know the 2-Step but don’t want to be stuck just dancing a basic around the dance floor in a circle without any moves.”

Basics, Basics, Basics!

“Shawn Trautman’s 2-Step Basics is in two words is, The Best! In this 3 DVD set Shawn breaks down 2-Step basics in three separate sections. On the Vol. 1 he shows you the four connection points for a great lead & follow connection. He then has you practice the rhythm pattern of 2-Step (quick,quick,slow,slow) forward, backwards and side by side so that muscle memory starts to take over. Then he takes you in to a simple left turn.

In Vol. 2 Shawn expands on the Left Turn taking you into three different turning positions. Cape, Wrap, and Promenade positions, which all will advance your dancing to the next level.

Finally in Vol. 3, Shawn and his lovely partner Nicole Frye who is also a great dancer with a beautiful smile, will take you through Prep Steps to get you into Cape, and other side by side positions plus the One & A Half exit to get you back to close position. All these Basics lead to a much better dance experience when you finally hit the floor.
I too have Shawn’s other 3 DVD sets on Country 2-Step and West Coast Swing. All I can say is they are all great. I keep going back to them to refresh my mind as I become a better dancer.

This 2-Step Basics DVD set does that also. It keeps reminding me of the simple basics that I’ve forgotten and have to fix. Add in a visual pleasing studio set, beautiful Nicole Frye, (who I don’t mind watching) and many camera angles so you will always see the feet, and you have a wonderful learning tool. Shawn in his simple yet commanding teaching method had me learning right out of the box and he’ll do the same for you. He has made me a happy 2-Step dancer!
Do yourself a favor and get this DVD set!.”

2 New-Step DVDs

“Just went through Shawn Trautman’s Country 2-Step Basics DVD set and I really enjoyed it! I also have Trautman’s older set of 2-step dance lesson DVDs and I can honestly say this set is even better. The new set breaks down the basics into manageable pieces and really encourages you to practice and do the exercises between the training sessions. Each pattern is shown several times and from different angles. Definitely highly recommended for beginners and even for people who know some 2-step already. These videos will give you enough to get out and go dancing and give you the foundation that’s needed for the more intermediate videos.”
