April Topic: Moving Together, Moving in Opposition: Partner Dynamics in Ochos & Giros The ways we move in relationship to our partner in tango has great dynamic range. In this month’s workshops we’ll start by perceiving and responding to our partner’s movement, and play with the dynamic of moving together as a partnership or in opposition. In the second workshop we’ll explore how variables like cross or parallel system, over rotation of pivots, and shifting centers of rotation impact the dynamics of our connection and give us a greater range of creative expression in the dance. Session 1 is a prerequisite for session 2. If you can only attend one session please plan to come to the first session. If you are a regular student of ours with a scheduling conflict please reach out to see if you can attend just the second session.
