7:20 - 8:35pm - LEVEL 2 Milonga

7:20 - 8:35pm - LEVEL 2 Milonga

We assume you know that in Milongas we actually dance to 3 different musics: Tango, Milonga and Vals. And no - Vals is not a faster and happier Tango. It definitely is faster, and definitely happier, but has its own steps, its own musicality and its own rules.

You have two choices - you can start to learn all 3 types of Tango at the same time. It will be difficult, but rewarding. a??Or: You can start with Tango and only after you advance you start learning Vals.

This class is meant for Tangueros who already dance Milonga but wish to work on understanding musicality and defining musical accents. We will work on most complex Milonga patterns and discuss general Milonga rules for improvising and creating your own steps especially in Milonga Lisa. Milonga Traspie steps will be introduced.
