This script contains two dances; Nightclub One & Nightclub Two. They are written to give beginners an introduction to nightclub two step dances. They are in fact the same dance, starting in slightly different places.
Nightclub One is written in the traditional nightclub two step rhythm, Quick-Quick Slow (QQS) like Amazing Faith by Rob Fowler. Nightclub Two is written in the Slow Quick-Quick rhythm, like The Dance by Tina Argyle. This rhythm is slightly trickier to learn, but is essentially the same dance, but you start from count 16 of Nightclub one. I suggest teaching Nightclub One until they have grasped it and then move on to Nightclub Two.
Both dances will fit to any nightclub rhythm songs and will work great for floor splits, but I have given some suggestions for each. Use different music for each and they can be used as 2 separate dances for floor splits – using popular current nightclub music such as Go to Hawaii, Million Dollar Smile or Diamonds in a whiskey glass.
