Twirl your partner, dosey doe! Square dancing has long been a form of entertainment for many across the United States. Named square dancing because of the arrangement of the dancers on the floor, the film breaks down folk dancing in a way that all viewers can understand. We are invited to join the dance as the dancers break apart some of the basic steps, showing that it is nothing to be intimidated by.
