Maral & Mariano Workshops in Rotterdam
Workshops
MONTHLY:
1st/2nd Thursdays 19:30 - 20:30 - Close embrace focused material OCCASIONALLY: Saturdays 14:30 - 15:30 - Musicality & improvisation focus Saturdays 15:30 - 16:30 - Complex combination for the pista Each of these workshops has a different focus yet all include technical, connection and expressive elements, which we believe to be fundamental to good quality, enjoyable tango dancing. For us, workshops and lessons are never about memorising a sequence, rather always about deepening skills and understanding. The technique aspects help you to understand the workings of movement within each body and between the couple, the precise physics and "how to" of it all - using a particular sequence to help you study the application of technical understanding to dance well and improvise. We also pay special attention to expressive aspects include musical understanding, dynamics, developing sensitivity to connect better, rhythmic understanding, emotional expression and more. All these help you to learn to feel more, hear more, sense more and to dance more of what you feel. In addition, we believe it's important to learn to dance with good awareness of space, both within the embrace and the use of space on the dance floor. |
