SATURDAY

Walking by your side
--
We learn how to walk on the outer lanes by introducing the concept of dissociation, and explore the difference between parallel and crossed system.


A cross made in heaven
--
There isn’t one single cross, there are many. Crossing the followers feet can be done in many different fashions but will only feel right when danced to the music. We will work on the technique needed for communicating a cross, explore different dynamics and eventually ‘invent’ our own cross.


In love with contrast
--
In this workshop we learn to listen to music and discover its different energy and dynamics in order to reflect it in our tango step. The same steps with different character will be used to express the variety of tango music.


SUNDAY

Pivot
--
We work on the technique of pivoting and leading pivots, trying to make pivots effortless and fluid, and the lead clear and pleasant for the follower.

Break the circle: giro
--
We deconstruct the well-known molinette and learn to put the pieces back together in any order and at any speed we desire.


Less is more: Improvisation, creativity, musicality
--
We develop our improvisational skills by limiting the set of ‘allowed’ movements in various ways. We will see that this immediately boosts our creativity, both in terms of space and the connection to the music. Note for followers: you won't be bored in this class!
