March Topic: Tango, Vals & Milonga Deeper Dive
Last month well worked on dancing to the three main genres of tango music: Tango, Vals and Milonga. Each of the music styles has a corresponding style of dance, we worked on hearing the difference and adapting the quality of step and pulse in our dance in response to the music.
This month we will review and have lots of time for practice while going deeper into the different use of alignments in the various styles. We will explore dynamics, musicality, and more. These fun workshops will allow you to dance to more tandas when attending socials. Every person will leave being able to lead and follow a tanda of each style. For those more experienced we hope to enhance your quality of movement and musical expression, and perhaps inspire you to jump out of your chair when you hear Milonga.
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.
