Advanced & Intermediates

A research class beyond familiar habits: less common rhythmic structures, separating roles from steps, perception and experimental exercises — without necessarily being tango nuevo.

Teaching in movement

Four ways in. One tango.

A lesson is not reduced to a figure to reproduce. Shawn connects several ways of entering movement, according to the people present and the question of the moment.

  1. 01

    The body

    Support, axis, weight, breath, technique and styling: feel how movement becomes possible before trying to display it.

  2. 02

    The relationship

    Communication, connection, roles and autonomy: understand space within the couple, between couples and in the ronda.

  3. 03

    Listening

    Rhythm, phrasing, silence, density and dynamics: hear more than the beat, then choose how to respond.

  4. 04

    Perception

    See a pathway, intention or structure through movement, an image, chalk on the floor or sometimes a dance model.

None of these paths is a level.

A beginner and a highly experienced dancer can enter through the same path without doing the same work. Those who teach can also renew their dancing, perception and pedagogical ideas.

Two in one evening

Continuity—with one box.

The second lesson builds on the first and uses one box on the Tango Card rather than two.

Under 16

Young dancers are welcome.

A legal adult must remain in the room, free when watching or paying normally when participating.
