Tango Salon with Guillermo Garcia

Every Thursday
8 PM to 9:30 PM

This class features a first half-hour section of individual technique exercises, building a routine for you to practice on your own, when you are at home or at the gym.
In the second one-hour section we apply the movements to actual dance with a partner. The class focuses on technique, lead-and-follow connection, musicality and steps for the social dance floor, providing a strong foundation on fundamental tango elements such as walking, pivots, turns, rhythm and cadencia, embellishments, enrosques, voleos, planeos, etc.
The material is adapted to your level, so that the class is productive for advanced students as well as beginners. This is a relatively small class so students receive significant individual attention.
You can bring a partner or come alone.

All levels welcome
Class fee: $15
