YOU DON’T NEED A PARTNER
Work on lead and follow
Sunday, December 6, 2009, we moved into a lovely new space at 544 Campbell Av, in West Haven, CT in the Physicians Physical and Aqua Therapy building upstairs on the second floor, continuing nineteen years of uninterrupted Sunday Guided Tango Practicas. (Between Center St and Main St, Next to City Hall)
*3:00-4:00 Beginner Class 4 week series that will cover all the basics needed to get started. Series repeats each month. (First 4 Sundays each month from September through June. No formal beginner class in July and August and Labor Day Weekend, but instruction is available in the Guided Practica) Come with or without a partner. Send your friends who want to get started. $40
-
•Week 1: All things walking; directions, quality, walking to the cross
-
•Week 2: Turning things around; ochos and boleos
-
•Week 3: Coming around again; grapevine, molinete
-
•Week 4: Picking up the pieces: using the elements for figures and games
(in months with 5 Sundays, this will be a free class open to anyone.)
Some months we may elect to offer a specialty class series if requested instead of the beginner series. The potential is negotiable.
*4:00 - 6:00 Guided Tango Practica $10. Refreshments. (Guided means I actively give personal attention and feedback, coach and instruct one-on-one or in small groups.)
