About this Event
Join us on Saturday afternoon for a workshop focused on milonga!!! Dedicated to all the dancers who sit out the Milonga tanda! (Followers and Leaders)
Ariel about his class:
In this workshop, we are going to learn the Milonga starting from the fundamentals. No matter the level of the student, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the connection between Tango and Milonga and expand your dance vocabulary. We will increase their knowledge little by little starting with simple movements and building up the complexity throughout the workshop. The way I like to teach is to help the students use sequences as tools to understand concepts, rather than memorizing sequences by heart. We are going to work with Fundamentals, Musicality, Follow and lead properly and body movements technique to add some spice to your dance style.
