2008 Augusta Class Description


Week 5
Dance Week
Argentine Tango
Matthew Duveneck


Argentine tango is a dance born in Buenos Aires during the earliest days of the last century and now popular all over the world.  Tango is considered by many partner dancers to be the ultimate form of creative dance.  The class will compare tango to other dance forms and will explore a comfortable, joyful way to communicate through this beautiful and sensual dance.  It will emphasize five dance connections: connection to music, connection to partner, connection to self, connection to the floor, and connection to community.  All levels are welcome!  Please bring shoes with leather or suede soles.
