Maestro Guillermo Merlos returns!
April 2024
April is special as we have two teachers teach For the month of February, the Intermediate+ class will work on: 'USING SACADAS TO CHANGE DIRECTIONS" In the intermediate tango classes, dancers will build upon the fundamental skills and concepts they learned as beginners and also in previous Intermediate class. It is also very necessary to continue to learn the importance of navigating the dance floor gracefully and safely We have a fantastic opportunity for the next 4 weeks to study Tango with one of the new generation teachers and performers, Maestro Guillermo Merlo |
Maestro
Guillemo Merlo April 17, 24, 2024 Wednesday Tango Classes 7-8pm Beginner 8-9pm Intermediate + Tango NO PARTNER NECESSARY NO NEED TO PRE-REGISTER. Just come and join us any time. More information HERE |
For the month of March, we will work on the following;
“Using Sacadas ot Change Directions" In Argentine tango, sacadas are a technique used to change direction or to redirect the partner's movement or a figure to another. This technique adds dynamic and fluidity to the dance, allowing for intricate footwork patterns and variations. It also allows partners to navigate the dance floor with grace and precision. They are often used as embellishments or to change direction seamlessly while maintaining the connection and flow between the partners. Some samples of when one can use the Sacadas: > Transitioning from a giro >Transitioning between sequences or combinations >Transitioning from a molinete >Transitioning from a forward or backward ochos >Transitioning from a cross . |
