Argentine Tango music has many flavors which can ignite your body to move in distinct ways. Which orchestras do you prefer? Can you hear the musical phrases? Can you walk on the beat? I believe musicality can be introduced into your body using musical techniques and individual exercises. A note to Follows: This class is as important to Follows as it is to Leads. When you have the opportunity to express yourself during a dance, can you do it musicality?
Clothing for class:
