Tango 1: Beginnings-13 | Compás
2-3 classes available each week.
We learn how to move and why it works through body awareness, sound technique, and also by having fun! Tango is fun and this style of learning and dancing maintain equality between dancer.
We use “Inviter” and “Realizer” and believe both roles are equal and the share the same technique of movement.
Learning tango is an orientation and experience of “tastes.” Think of this offering of classes as a guided experience to feel comfortable and empowered to explore the vast landscape of all the variations of Tango.
We hone social Argentine tango.
We leave the door open to explore milonguero-style (often excluded) and the other lovely styles, as well.
