May brings lots of beautiful flowers and great Tango classes and dancing
May 2024
May has 5 Wednesdays so we have more time to learn new things! For the month of May the Intermediate+ class will work on: "𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐨𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐆𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐓𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐨" 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 5 weeks to study Tango with one of the new generation teachers and performers, Maestro Guillermo Merlo |

For the month of May we will work on the following;
"Combining Boleos & Giros in Tango" In this class, you will have the opportunity to explore different combinations and creating beautiful moments on the dance floor. 𝐁𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐨𝐬 -- are sharp, whipping movements of the leg, typically performed by the follower. They can be directed forward, backward, or to the side. 𝐆𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 -- are turns done by both dancers and it involves pivots and circular movements around each other. They can be led by the leader or initiated by the follower's response to the lead. By combining boleos and giros (turns) in tango you can create some dynamic sequences that add flair and excitement to your dancing and you can impress your Tanguero friends. Teaching this combination in tango requires an emphasizes on both technique and musicality and this is what Maestro Guillermo Merlo will be concentrating on. . |
