studios have their own unique takes on this Country Western Dance, also referred to as the Texas Two Step. But whatever variation you learn, this style is danced with a partner and consists of two quick steps and two slow steps.<\/p><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">Growing in popularity throughout the 20th century along with the rise of country music, this fun social dance took on a western tone that sets it apart from the European dances from which it evolved. In fact, the wide stance and heel-toe turns of this dance are believed to be the result of dancing in spurs!<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h1>Kick Up Your Heels!<\/h1><p class=\"sqsrte-large preFlex flexIn\">Grab a friend and head down to Fred Astaire Boise to learn the Country Two Step on March 26!
