Tango for more experienced dancers: This is a dynamic and in depth course aimed at the more experienced tango dancer. You should already be familiar with advanced tango figures such as sacadas, boles and ganchos and be dancing regularly in milongas.
We will look in a lot of detail at the solo technique necessary to become an advanced dancer. If you already consider yourself an advanced dancer this is your weekly practice to help maintain good body technique.
After warming up the body we will deconstruct a figure or sequence but from a conceptual perspective. This is a participatory class you will be encouraged to bring yourself and an open and exploratory mind. The class has a workshop feel to it and is facilitated by Emma Lucia Reyes, social dancing assistants and visiting teachers from Europe and Argentina.
