Without a solid foundation, learning more complex figures can not only be more difficult mentally, but can be physically unsafe for you and or your partner. Tango Music: We will discuss the 3 most basic categories of tango music and how to tell the difference. I will recommend specific orchestras to look up for listening at home. Tango Culture: Etiquette at a "practica" vs a "milonga", "Codigos" or rules, and when they are a big deal and when they aren't. How to find a partner, acquire a dance, and escorting your partner on and off the floor. Tango FUN!** We have so much passion and joy for dancing and teaching tango, and throughout these 10 weeks, we will be having fun and celebrating with you as you discover a new way to move and connect with your partner through music.
