Sunday, Dec 10
TWO OPEN WORKSHOPS

Workshop 1: Using tension in rhythmic tango

Description: Tension in the body isn’t the same as muscular contraction. To musically express rhythmic tango, what we need is not to dance fast, but to use the body differently.

Sunday Dec 10 10:30 am to 12:00 pm

Workshop 2: Vals

Description: We will explore how to broaden the ways in which our bodies can express Vals music. Our power as dancers comes from the music and the connection with the floor and the partner.

Sunday Dec 10 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm

Each workshop is 1.30 hours, intermediate/advanced level

$30 for one workshop, $50 for two workshops
