Tango Dynamics

Level 3 · Two 8-Week Series · NEW

Foundations is where your dancing takes shape — two complementary eight-week series, taken in either order. Inside every figure we build the technique that makes it work: axis, pivot, connection, and musicality.

Series 1

Body Dynamics

Movement, set in motion.

Next series starts

Tuesdays, Jan 5-Feb 23

Tuesdays 8 PM · 8 weeks

01 Suspension and elasticity — stretching time inside the movement

02 The hamaca, rebounds, and rebound-driven changes of direction

03 Back crosses and chains, from the ocho cortado and beyond

04 Barridas, and your first socially sized off-axis: colgada and volcada

05 Cadenas — linking it all into continuous motion

Series 2

Music Dynamics

Where the music takes over.

Next series starts

Tuesdays, Mar 2 - Apr 20

Tuesdays 8 PM · 8 weeks

01 Phrasing and the eight-count — hearing where the music breathes

02 The pause as vocabulary, and dynamics as expression

03 The same figure, different orchestra: D'Arienzo to Di Sarli

04 Vals — cross-rhythms and choosing your beats

05 Milonga — lisa first, then traspié

06 Improvisation — exiting any figure into any other

How it works

Start With Either Series

The two series stand on their own, so you can begin with whichever is running when you're ready. Dancers who complete both leave with deeper understanding of the dynamics int he dance and how to change them for more satisfying dance.

Please indicate your role — leader or follower — during checkout so we can keep the class balanced. We encourage exploring both roles over time.
