Argentine
Tango Beginners, 4 weeks, $50
Tango is based on a unique, non-verbal method of
communicating with your partner. Learning Tango is
about learning a new way of communication.
It is not about memorising long sequences of steps.
Instead, as a man/leader you will learn how to invite
your partner to move in any direction you like - without
pushing or pulling. You will also learn the most common
concepts in Argentine Tango that allow you to do "ochos",
"changes in direction", "giros"
and more.
Ladies you will discover how to recognise the man's
signals. You will also start preparing your body (posture,
balance) and mind (to wait & listen not to anticipate)
At the end of the 4weeks beginners course all dancers
will have a basic understanding of the magical, force-less
leading and following technique that makes Tango so
unique, powerful and sensual.
You will be able to enjoy dancing with most people
even if they learned Tango in another city or country!
After the class we recommend to stay (for up to 3
hrs) and practise with different dancers at different
levels at no extra cost.
Even if you have only 15min extra practicing time
after class you will experience signficantly faster
progress and joy of learning compared to those who
did not practice.
Non beginners at any level are welcome to
join this course on a drop in bases for free.
Dancing with less experienced dancers will challenge
and improve your dance skills considerably, get you
warmed up for the intermediate class and is social
and fun.
Depending how much you practice - this course is
likely to get you to do the drop in int/advanced classes.
However, if you feel you are not ready for the next
level yet, you can do the course again half price.
Salsa
& Latin Beginners, 4 weeks, $50
This course is great for everyone
curious to try out all the most popular Latin dances
(LA & Cuban Salsa, Merengue, Argentine Tango).
You will learn the basics of all three dances which
come in handy at any party or night club.
Salsa and Merengue will make your hips move and learn
how to turn - especially the ladies. Argentine Tango
technique will allow maximum comfort, balance and
a good connection with your partner and the music
which is a big plus in any dance.
The course also includes up to 2 hrs of practice
opportunities after class.
After this course you will
feel and look more comfortable in any dance situation
compared to your friends who have never had any classes...
If you want to take your Salsa
to the next level you can either do the same course
again (more experienced dancers will always learn
something new) or ask us about the next higher level
Salsa classes which can be organised depending on
demand (min 3 couples, $10/person/hour).
Fast track Latin Dance Package,
4wks,$80
We keep getting phone calls by people who like to
commit to take a class at least twice per week. They
like to accellerate their learning experience or simply
enjoy an additional entertaining class or social practice.
This course is doing exactly that and even brings
the cost/class down by 20%.
Classes will be on twice a week
followed by practicing opportunities on both days.
The course will cover the same content as "Argentine
Tango Beginners" and "Salsa & Latin
Beginners" together.
We recommend this course especially for dancers who
are faster or slower than average learners. Fast learners
will find more opportunities to expand their dancing
while slower learners will get more practice.
Whether you learn to dance, a new language or martial
arts - you will find that experienced learners recommend
taking classes at least twice a week as many people
forget some things in a week - especially if they
don't practice.
Tango
Intermediate/Adv drop-in classes
This course is great for anyone who is comfortable
with the basic Tango technique and navigation - in
particular walking with the music in any direction,
ochos, giros and open embrace dancing and has already
some social dance experience e.g. in our practica.
Over time we cover all intermediate and advanced
concepts of both traditional Tango and Tango Nuevo:
boleos, sacadas, ganchos, barridas, leg wraps as well
as tilted axis moves (colgadas, volcadas) and musicality
training including syncopation (traspie variations).
The goal of this course is to make you a comfortable,
musical and creative - or in other words "a popular"
- tango dancer.
We try to taylor our intermediate classes to the
current needs of our students. If you are interested
in learning something particular, let us know and
we may be able to make it a class theme soon.
You do not need to book this course - simply come
when you have time. Of course you could also just
come to the practicas without taking classes - like
anyone, at any level.
