Hi
Thought we might entice you into joining the Intermediate Tango & Waltz
class starting February 1 (Thursday) at 8:45pm-10:00pm at 310 Freer.
First, my partner, Hilary Frooman, will be assisting with the
instruction,
so you will get the woman's point-of-view and insight into dancing as
well as my own.
Second, we will be teaching some interesting steps. You should already
know some of these steps from a beginning level course. We will teach
everything once, so if you've had at least one waltz, foxtrot, tango,
or
quickstep course before, come try us out. Here are the steps we
currently
plan on covering - steps with an * in front of them are taught in many
beginning classes in waltz or tango:
waltz
*natural turn
*right-to-left closed change
*reverse turn
*left-to-right closed change
natural hesitation
chasse' to the right
back change to promenade
chasse' from promenade to closed
natural spin turn
back right-to-left closed change
1/2 reverse turn
reverse corte'
back wisk
chasse' from wisk to closed
tango
*walks
*link
*closed promenade
*reverse turn (outside partner) with closed finish
walk to reverse rock turn
right lunge with rock recovery
back tango close
four step
natural rock turn with closed finish
side steps
spanish drag with promenade ending
promenade link
Third, we will teach a bit of how to dance, including
attitude (tango needs attitude)
flow (waltz needs flow)
posture
frame
connection
dancing with another person
Last, we will give you the opportunity to dance a group tango in
front of a crowd - at the tango society's benefit for the UPD Tango
statue on March 3. No, you don't have to, but if you like to perform
this is a chance to show off a few of your skills, and it is all for
a good cause. We are looking for a crowd of people to act like club
dancers in Paris, shortly after tango was introduced. We also need
a few polka dancers for another number.
Hope to see you Thursday night!
-- Hilary Frooman & Bruce Leasure
