Blues For Tango Dancers (Blues 401)

This class will introduce tango dancers to blues. They can also improve their tango from this blues class by experiencing multidirectional connection, by styling their walk like ballroom blues and by filling up time with micro blues when stuck in the line of dance.

Tango For Blues Dancers (Blues 402)

There are two reasons to try a new but related dance. First, it’s fun and worthwhile on its own, and tango is adored around the world for good reason. Second, even if you do not become a tanguero, you can learn important tips about balance, relaxed arms and more.

Blues/Tango Fusion Through Rule Breaking (Blues 403)

While it is impossible to achieve a true ‘fusion’ of two or more dance styles without mastering all of them, it is reasonable to multiply your options and stimulate creativity. In this class, we will see how breaking some fundamental rules in each dance is not so wrong when seen from the perspective of the other.
