This week Saturday 18th February Tony teaching on the Embrace.
First of all, reminding you that we have reduced the time for the classes from 1 – 2.30pm, to allow a bit more time for just dancing from 2.30 – 5pm.
This Saturday 18th February, the programme is as follows:
1 – 1.45pm, Class on Preparation on the Connection and embrace.
In this class we will work on essential basic tango movements, and how we can modify them to create that special shared ‘Tango’ within each couple. The main focus of this class will be ‘the embrace’.
1.45 – 2.30pm Class on the Connection/ Embrace and possible figures where it will be challenged/ invited to change the embrace.
This class will include figures with the embrace and challenges for the connection. Figures and tango principles where you can take the opportunity to change the embrace and see how it impacts the connection. We will show a delightful and amazing range of possibilities. We might compare dancing tango with drinking wine. How do you drink a glass of good wine? Do you just knock it back, or do you discover the many ways to appreciate it? Similar to the cross are you up for exploring the varied ways of appreciating and dancing the cross with your partner?
2.30- 5pm Practica/ Milonga with DJ Andy Warner
The classes will be suitable for a wide range of abilities including beginners and experienced dancers. Please come on time to take full advantage of this opportunity. Doors open at 12.45pm
