FRIDAY DANCE WORKSHOP SCHEDULE

NOTES: GREEN = beginner level YELLOW = intermediate level RED = advanced level 2Step or 2S = Two-step • ECS = East Coast Swing • NCTS = Night Club Two-Step • WCS = West Coast Swing • Progressive-Style 2-Step refers to the QQSS style of two-step (i.e. starting on the "quick" step) most commonly seen in the US, but not generally practiced in LGBT clubs in California. • SF-Style 2-Step refers to the SSQQ style of two-step (i.e. starting on the "slow" step) more common in the western US, incorporating moves that have a swing feel to them. Visitors accustomed to the QQSS or "progressive" style of two-step are especially encouraged to learn this style for easier mingling with the natives. • East Coast Swing can have a triple-step, double-step, or single-step beat. Single-step is used with the fast style of ECS dancing commonly seen in San Francisco, while triple-step is more standard.
