| | Feel the beat: Nightclub two-step |
 | | Nightclub two-step music shares with most popular music a steady backbeat rhythm, that is, the snare drum plays on 2 and 4. |  | | Nightclub two-step (in the rest of this section simply called two-step) is a romantic dance to slow pop music. |  | | For instance, by double-timing slow two-step music you can dance foxtrot or rumba to it. |

| | Slow Two step - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The slow two step is a Latin dance, a round dance rhythm danced to slow, romantic music with either 4 or 6 beats per measure and a tempo of 16–32 measures per minute. |  | | Out of the six beats of music, the first step uses three beats, the second uses two, and the last step is just one beat. |  | | Most choreography is written as though the timing of the figures is "slow, quick, quick," and if the music is 4/4, that is a good description. |

 | | "Two Step" is perfect for medium and slow music. |  | | This worked well with fast music, but the footwork was too slow for medium and slow tempo songs. |  | | The song Lady In Red is a medium tempo song played at 39 MPM (measures per minute). |

 | | In some cases, there are multiple artists and only one artist renders the song in true "nightclub two step fashion." Sometimes I list the Album title in parentheses. |  | | It seems that most nightclub two step songs have a tempo of between 72 and 96 beats per minute. |  | | Remember it is a nightclub dance -- not a ballroom dance -- so there is room for a lot of improvisation and creativing. |

 | | Other dances with this name were danced in the 19th century in the USA under the music of John Philip Sousa marches (Washington Post Two Step), which was kind of slowed-down, but jumpy Polka or Galop, as well as in the beginning of the 20th century in Europe and USA. |  | | It also describes a subgenre of electronic dance music developed in the 1990s and which has become prominent in 2001. |  | | Two-step (Two Step) is the name of several dances, some related to each other and some not. |

 | | They danced it closer to 100 BPM instead of 80-90 and the style was bouncier, but the basic step and many variations were the same or similar. |  | | I've heard many people remark that it is almost identical to the Nightclub Two Step, except that the spinning turn is the basic instead of a variation. |  | | BTW, when people try to claim that Buddy Schwimmer didn't really invent the Nightclub Two-Step, because it predated him by decades, I defend him by stating that Originality is coming up with something completely on your own, whether you knew it already existed or not. |

 | | Salsa remained dormant until 1962 when Secco Records released Joe Cuba’s Stepping Out LP. |  | | Easier to dance than the mambo, with a squarish beat and a characteristic hiccup on the third beat, it spread to Europe, before being dethroned in the early 1960's by the pachanga and then the boogaloo. |  | | During the late 30’s while the Hispanic community was sprouting in Spanish Harlem, Gabriel Oller, proprietor of Tatay’s Spanish Music Center on the corner of 110th Street and 5th Avenue remembers shouts of “échale pique, caliéntalo, menealo que se empelota…” used to describe the thrilling Afro-Cuban dance rhythms of rumbas and guarachas. |

 | | Although the origins of some dances, like the Nightclub 2 Step, are quite recent and well documented, other dances, such as the Waltz, have been in existence for centuries. |  | | Nightclub and Swing Dances are generally dances that originated in a social dancing environment that encourages compact dancing on a small floor. |  | | However, several of these dances can be danced effectively in a large space. |

Outside California, Nightclub Two Step is also known as the California Two Step; it is not related to the Country Two Step. |
