Description:
This course will build a vocabulary of milonga steps to create an improvised
milonga dance. Starting with the basic steps of tango the repertoire will be
expanded to include steps that are unique to milonga. The structure of
milonga that provides a basis for navigation and improvisation will be
taught, as well as connection with your partner and the music.
===================================
Coming to Champaign-Urbana for the first time is this course devoted
exclusively to the exciting, rhythmic dance that is the predecessor of the
tango - the milonga. After tango, milonga is the dance danced most at the
milongas. It is a happy, refreshing dance that is uplifting and enjoyable.
Any serious tanguero should also be skilled in dancing milonga.
Reasons for taking this course:
- You don't know milonga and would like to be able to dance it socially.
- You want to expand your repertoire of milonga patterns.
- You know some milonga steps, but
- you want to improve your ability to dance a varied, interesting and
improvised dance
- you want to improve your connection with the rhythm
- you want to improve you techniques of leading and following
- You are competent in milonga but you seek a review and any new knowledge
you can acquire (after all, every instructor has their own knowledge to
communicate).
Susana and I hope to see you there.
Ron & Susana
