Walking The Tango--TO THE MUSIC!

Ten Progressive Classes With Linda Valentino

 Walking Technique PLUS How to Walk Different Rhythms (Level 2 & Up)

We will incorporate the first few chapters of Joaquín Amenábar's book and DVD, "TANGO: Let's Dance To The Music!"
(The book/DVD is not required for the class, but if you want to buy one they will be available for $40)

We'll progress to really fun walking patterns with cruzadas and adornos for both partners, fitting the patterns to different musical examples.

As any good tanguero knows, the foundation of tango is walking, and your figures are only as good as your walk. But it’s not easy to walk well if you haven’t learned the proper technique. If you bump toes, step on feet,  knock knees, or lose connection between the upper bodies, this is the class for you! Learn the posture, embrace, body mechanics and dynamics that are the keys to walking in harmony with your partner--with connection, elegance, ease and musicality. Then learn the kinds of fun walking steps that spice up your tango! This class is great for both LEADERS AND FOLLOWERS at ALL LEVELS.
