Martha’s House Workshop and Practica

PrácTica’ is a tango experience bridging between a lesson and a milonga (social dance).
A perfect, and supportive environment to practice the skills you already have, try something new, learn about the codigos of tango, ask questions and receive advice.

Our Resident Teacher Bill Jarman will guide you on what to practice and how to practice.

* Please be polite and courteous. Give each other feedback in a constructive manner.

The practica is the learning environment for dancing tango. It is the partner to the milonga in the development of tango.”

Practicas are held in Studio 18

Taking it to the Next Level

 

This level is suitable for dancers who understand the basic level criteria and the underlying structure of tango. Although we will be working as couples the class is restricted to the same household or regular couples only.

The focus is on finding a connection within the embrace and how to incorporate musicality. Challenging tango combinations are taught and discussed. This level allows for the opportunity to deepen the expression of the dance, allowing your personal style to emerge through musicality and more complex adornments.
