Advanced Beginners Course
In this course it’s assumed you’re familiar with the basic figures of
Argentine Tango. In this 4 week course we are going to take a deep dive
into the essential elements of the dance and movement in general. I will
introduce techniques and concepts that, once learned, will make you a well
balanced dancer equipped with the knowledge and tools to excel.
Key Elements we will explore include:
• Axis - How to manage your own and being aware of your partners.
• Rhythms - There are five fundamental Rhythms we use.
• Contact & Connections - This includes the person you're dancing
with but also includes how you use the floor. The floor is one of the
only tools we have as dancers outside our own body.
• Embrace - The Embrace is its own dance within a dance.
• Sequences - This includes an order of operations for our physical
movements and the limitless ways we can piece steps together to
create patterns.
• Communicate - Either through Touch, Vision, Body Weight, Tension
& Timing, Communication is super essential in partner dancing.
Argentine Tango has Idiosyncrasies in how to communicate and conduct oneself.
• Movement (Lateral, Forward, Back & Rotational. Used to a lesser degree Rising and Falling).
These elements are the underlying mechanisms and understandings that
will allow you generate your unique style, your own dance.
