Argentine Tango is a dance based on connection and musicality. In this course, in the first two weeks, you will repeat the content of Level 1 (Tango posture, walking technique, salida básica (basic 6- and 8-steps), parada (stop), sandwich, back ocho, forward ocho, rock step and la cruzada (cross)). Afterwards, you will learn intermediate level figures such as ocho cortado, boleo, gancho, barida, and lapiz. You will also learn a few modern tango figures (Tango Nuevo), which better fit electrotango music such as Gotan Project, Bajofondo, and Otros Aires. An example of Tango Nuevo is in the link below.
