Scheduled to appear at NEFFA 2023:
Argentine Tango ca. 1916 | TS Sunday April 23, 12:00noon to 12:50pm, [Show on Grid] |
Early Argentine Tango was quite different from modern Argentine or ballroom tango. It is still fun to dance today. This class is an introduction to "El Tango Argentino de Salon" by Nicanor Lima (ca. 1916). You will learn essential walking, crossing and quick steps, plus key combinations called "sentadas" and "medias lunas." See how a few basic principles led to innumerable possibilities in this versatile dance. |
