Progressive Two- Step
Originated in the 1800′s by European settlers, the Progressive Two-Step was an offspring of the minuet. In the old Western days when women were not allowed to dance with men, men danced together, and would place one hand on the shoulder holding a can of beer and the other hand to the side. The only women who eventually danced with these men were Indian Squaws. This lead to the development of lots of turns, because Indian women loved to spin while dancing. Two-step is a Western dance whose popularity has spread all over the United States.
