ABOUT THE CLASSES:
Perfect for beginner and intermediate levels.. It cannot be stressed
enough, the cool tango moves depend on basic technique and musicality,
which is what these classes are all about. Also, cross training will
make you a better dancer, as these classes compliment what you know
already. The second hour class will focus on the technique that
makes the basic tango elements work.
NO CLASS SERIES:
Rather than the 6 week series, the 2 hours are progressive instead..
This is possible because the beginner class covers techniques that
tango dancers refine for years.. Complete beginners should show up
on time for the first hour.. Intermediates can show up late, LOL..
TWO HOUR CLASS:
If the class becomes too advanced, then join the "guided practice" for
the remainder of the 2 hours (we rotate around to work with you at
your level)..
ENJOY THIS VERY COOL DANCE SPACE:
This is a luxury health club, so the AC always works for starters..
Our new room is fantastic.. You have to see it to believe it.. One
long tall wall of mirrors, and the windows overlook a lake.. The
feeling in the room is like being outdoors and overlooking a vista..
MUSICALITY:
BOTH Beginner and Intermediates can benefit from musicality. When an
interesting song comes on we have short mini sessions on musicality
(and a few tricks to help you figure out the music yourself).. The
intermediate class hour will have more challenging songs..
BEGINNER CLASS
Our beginner class is a great introduction to Argentine tango. We do not burden you with six-week series, so you can drop in anytime (this works because tango dancers refine the basics forever, LOL). The entire dance rests on basic technique, so we emphasize technique. However, we also try to make it fun and get you dancing after the first hour with easy tango movements you can use for dancing.. If you have already taken a few lessons, it is always a good idea to refresh and practice the fundamentals (and welcome new dancers into the tango community).. Intermediate dancers will gain insights into the fundamentals, by working with beginner dancers (as the teacher learns from the student).
INTERMEDIATE CLASS
The intermediate class will be tango elements such as sacadas, ganchos, baridas, turns, etc..
