“Social Tango - 1″, Mar.29 - Apr.26, Monday nights 7:00-8:00 PM @ Studio Tango - RTP

Argentine Tango is about the connection between the partners, the music and the musicality of the movement, and the body language that allows us to improvise and to communicate with our partners on the social dance floor.  And yes, it is not only “passionate” or “romantic” but it is also fun
In the  “Social Tango for Beginners” level, students will be exposed to the foundational elements of tango as a “body language”, to music and musicality along with the social dance etiquette, the “codes” of communication in the social dance setting, history  of tango and tango culture.
Concepts: the invitation to the dance, “tango embrace” , “connection” between the partners and among all the dancers on the social dance floor, the “posture”, the “tango walk”, “parallel and cross walking systems”, “crossing steps” (i.e. “ochos” etc), the “turns” (”giros”), the “music/musicality”; and some ideas how to use these concepts to improvise which is the “heart and soul” of social tango.
