TANGO CURIOUS
What do we dance?
Level 1 covers the fundamentals of tango and is designed for complete beginners. Everyone is welcome, neither experience nor a partner required, nor good balance, good musicality, or good posture. Those things you will gain by learning tango. Tango Curious Program teaches basic tango steps & patterns, concepts of communication with your partner, musicality, self-awareness, and floor craft. The goal of the program is to guide and support you in becoming a confident and comfortable social dancer who understands tango traditions, codes of conduct, and their history. The program is supported by weekly practice where you are welcome to polish your skills and meet other members of the community in a relaxing environment. After finishing the program, you are welcome to join Level 2 to continue your progress at your own pace. This is a safe and inclusive community and we are happy to welcome you to our tango family.
TANGO EXPLORER
How do we dance?
Level 2 provides the essentials of tango social dancing: * master classic tango patterns * become creative in building up your own tango style * learn tools to make your dance dynamic and interesting * gain depth to understanding of connection with your partner and tango music * be part of the discussions about inclusivity and the evolution of tango * learn to trust and become more comfortable in choosing when to trust * become an active listener and present in the moment This cycle is designed for tango dancers who have completed Level 1 “Tango Curious” Program or other beginners’ classes, so they are knowledgeable of basic terms and moves, and can build from that foundation. The program is ongoing, operating on a 4-5 week cycle with a different focus and topic for each cycle.
TANGO DEDICATED
When do we dance?
Moving on! Level 3 is a monthly program focused on expanding tango vocabulary, improving technically, and exploring the sensuality of the dance. Every month we focus on a specific element of tango, exploring it from different perspectives and learning different combinations. This level is intended for tango dancers with up to two years of dancing experience who are excited to move forward in their tango journey.
PRACTICE
Practica follows the Level 2 class, all levels are welcomed and encouraged to join us for practice. Our goal is to provide a safe, welcoming, and inclusive space for all to practice their skills. Everytime you practice you improve your own skills and the quality of dancing in the community, so we celebrate it with each of you. Ask different people to practice or work with your dance partner. Practica is hosted by Iryna, so you are welcome to bring your questions and work through them with the instructor, or just ask for feedback. Rules: Everyone (despite dancing role) is welcome to invite/ask anyone to dance. Everyone can say no, and has right to choose whom they practice with and for how long, and to be treated with respect. And please do not take “no” personaly. Yet the environment must be safe, comfortable, and inclusive for all levels, roles, and genders. We do not practice neither cabaceos, nor cortinas, to avoid confusion with milonga. Should you have any questions or concerns, please talk to the orginizer.
