This Saturday is the TSoM Milonga! Be sure you get in a lesson or two so you
are ready for the biggest dance of the month.
We've been working on the cross in Beginners - if you are having problems
with this simple step come and get some insights. In Advanced I've been
getting some nasty looks for working you so hard, but believe me, this will
pay off on the dancefloor. We will start to transition out of open embrace
tonight, which I'm sure will make you very happy. In intermediate, we will
continue to refine the technique needed for great tango. This week I will
review the walk.
I hope to see you all Tuesday night at my house for wine, food and tango
dancing! Starts at 9:30, 3142 1st Ave S
Want to jumpstart your tango? Here are some strategies that have worked for
our best dancers:
* Take a private soon after you have attended a group class. This gets
the information that you need, that is not generalized for the group. This
helps you not to overcorrect, which is a rampant problem.
* Take a couple of classes a week, and repeat the beginners.
* Find several practice partners.
* Find someone to share your privates. It is not only more reasonable
in cost, but gives you someone to practice with.
* Start a tango notebook. Write down the things that you would like to
remember, like advice, songs you like, vocabulary, etc.
