What is a “couples specialty” dance?
This is a dance in which all couples on the floor dance the same set sequence of steps. It’s somewhat like a line dance choreographed for couples, but the dancers usually move around line of dance. Everyone supposedly is on the same move during the whole dance. Some examples are El Paso, Wooden Nickel, Sidekick, and Sixpack Summer. In contrast, during a two-step or waltz, everyone does their own moves in whatever order they want. Most couples specialty dances also can be danced without a partner.
