About The Classes
Vision-classes-goal
VISION "In improvisation we trust" What we like about tango is the possibility of building the dance as a construction of little moments, even if we use patterns while dancing we challenge the couple to decide step by step what's next. We believe in the real improvisation.
CLASSES In the classes the students will work to awaken the body awareness and connection to develop the physical dialogue within the couple. Our technique work has not only an aesthetic purpose in itself but is rather a means to find the comfort of the dancers into a relaxed and sensitive embrace. To stimulate the improvisation while working on elements we focus on short and useful situations rather than long sequences.
GOAL We would like to provide students with useful information to help them develop a personal and creative dance, encouraging the diversity we so much love about tango.
Schedule of the events:
Friday 23 September:
19.30 - 20.30: Class with Sofía & Pablo
TASTY MOVES FOR CROWDED DANCE FLOOR
Some easy and helpful ideas for a crowded dance floor. A good way to meet Pablo and Sofia in a class before the weekend.
All Levels (except complete beginners)
20.30 - 00.00: GUIDED PRACTICA + PRACTILONGA - DJ Pablo Inza
The GUIDED PRACTICA Is the transition between the class and the milonga. Is the time you devote to incorporate what you have learnt previously. It is guided because Pablo and Sofia will be there to assist in whatever you may want to ask them, and they will also suggest things to work on. The last 2 hours will become PRACTILONGA, a free space to practice and dance.
