1A. 6:30 - 7:30. BEGINNERS. Instructor: Megan. The fundamentals of lead:follow, connection, frame, dancing in place, using the music, rocking check steps, the beautiful signature step of Argentine Tango called La Cruzada. All in the parallel system and using both tango & milonga rhythms.
It does not matter whether you start with 1A or 1B. No partner required.
2A. 7:30 - 8:30. BEYOND BEGINNERS. Instructors: Megan & Chris Perkins. This month we introduce the Crossed Foot System of dancing -- a whole new universe in which no one is ever "on the wrong foot". We will cover a couple ways of changing systems, and some "steps" that easily flow from the changes. (eg., back ochos, walking on 3 tracks, La Cruzada). It opens up new ways to be musical, expressive and creative, and expands the flexibility of connection with your partner. And we will add the tango vals rhythms. Pre-requisites: Level 1A & 1B, or instructor pre-approval. No partner required.
3. 8:30 - 9:30. INTERMEDIATE. Instructors: Megan & Chris Perkins. Boleos and Other Fancy & Delicious Moves! Pre-requisites: Levels 1A, 1B, 2A, and 2B; or instructor pre-approval. No partner necessary.
