Ocho decorations and styling - Argentine tango workshop with Nicolas Godoy and Miriam Gita

Ochos are an important fundamental move in tango and, like any other move, they can be adapted to suit the mood you want to respond to the music with. Decorations and styling are methods of adapting your ochos to better express your musicality but it is important not to interfere with the connection and attention necessary for the lead and follow to work well in harmony together. Miriam and Nicolas will give you their favourite decorations on ochos for both leaders and followers as well as focusing your awareness on the lead and follow first and foremost and the music and only after that give attention to styling. You will also be given you strengthening exercises designed to get the style principles assimilated into your muscle memory and make you look more like a tango dancer by enhancing your posture, balance and flexibility. No need to bring a partner. This is an open-level workshop, all welcome! Sunday 15th Febuary 2026 12-2pm, £20 Colchester city centre, parking available. Text Miriam on 07706746750 to book your place.
