Tango Argentino Basics Course

Join to explore the essentials of Tango Argentino from a mindful, embodied approach. Focusing not only on what to do, but on how and why we move the way we do in this dance. In this course you're warmly invited to start your tango journey with solid foundations, clarity, and trust in your process. And to gain more depth and freedom in your movements if you already dance. It is ideal for you if: 💫 You’re a complete beginner in Tango Argentino. 💫 You’re returning to tango and want to rebuild the foundations of your dance. 💫 You've been dancing long enough to realize that working on your fundamentals is key to improve, even (and specially) at advanced stages of your tango path. 💫 You’re looking for a thoughtful, body-aware approach to Tango Argentino within a friendly community. 💫 You appreciate a safe space for questions, mistakes, and exploration. You’ll learn/improve: 💫 Fundamental posture and body organization. 💫 Tango walking, connection, and navigation on the dance floor. 💫 How to move with another person comfortably and clearly. 💫 The foundations needed for social dancing, and building confidence in your movement. If you are an improver, revisiting the basics helps you to: 💫 Focus on elements you might have overlooked when learning everything for the first time. 💫 Refine technique and efficiency of your movements. 💫 Clarify concepts you may already "know" but not fully embody yet. 💫 Expand improvisation, musicality, and partner dialogue. No previous experience required, just curiosity to work with essential principles that allow you to understand the Tango Argentino language sooner, and adapt easier to real social dance situations. You can come with or without a partner, and learn the role(s) of your choice. Jessica encourages to learn both. Each class is followed by a guided practice gathering (20:00-22:00), where you can take time to socialize and integrate what you learned, ask questions, receive feedback, and practice in a relaxed and supportive environment. * Every Sunday except during our monthly Tango Immersion Weekends.
