Foundations Immersion Seminars in Buenos Aires

We are happy to invite you to 5 days focused on essential aspects of tango: TECHNIQUE * BODY AWARENESS * CONNECTION * MUSICALITY * FLOORCRAFT... ... in other words, a 21-hour immersion seminar focused exclusively on foundations, stripping your dance to its essential components and rebuilding it from the bottom up and from the inside out! Please note that we will *not* cover fancy steps and sequences in this seminar, but rather focus on building and refining your movement. Our goal is not to add figures but to add comfort, quality and expression, and to unify the knowledge you have accumulated over the years.
