August 7 - 10 Ashland OR. I will teach workshops and DJ a milonga for this first timeThursday July 10 - August 14 at Tango Beretin
Alex’s studio at 6305 SE Foster (@ Holgate)
The milonguero style is characterized by the very
close
embrace it is danced in.
This embrace facilitates a very close connection
between
partners, and is a
framework for a dance of great subtlety and beauty.
7:00 - 8:00 PM Beginning Argentine Tango: Price $45
We will develop a vocabulary of steps that are
immediately
useful on the dance
floor. We will work on the special leading
and following techniques required to
dance comfortably in this close embrace. We will
also develop an understanding
of the music. Most of all we will have fun
dancing. No previous tango
experience is required for this class, however this
class
would also be interesting
for a dancer with some experience who is new to this
style of tango.
8:00 - 9:00 PM Intermediate Argentine Tango: Price $45
Intro to Crossed Feet
The situation of crossed feet is very important for
the tango dancer to understand.
We will explore this situation, and transitions from the more familiar
parallel feet to
crossed feet. We will develop the most common crossed foot
movement, the back
ochos. We will explore combinations of this new material with the
check step turns
from the beginning class and the last intermediate class.
9:00 - 10:00 PM Int/Adv Argentine Tango: Price $45
Surprising Combinations
This class will develop some surprising and
beautiful combinations using changes of
direction and unusual transitions to and from crossed feet. We
will explore boleos
as changes of direction, learning how to do them in a compact and
dynamic way.
We will find some unusual and surprising places for boleos.
Finally we will use these
new movements to explore the musicality of the music of the late 40’s
and early 50’s.
I am offering a discount for high school and college
students.
For students the price for
these classes is $25 per class series.
Drop ins are welcome for these classes. The
drop
