Argentine Tango
Tutor: Kirsty Bennett
One of the most beautiful dances to learn
Learn the authentic, improvised dance of Argentina through a vocabulary of movement that will enable you to dance intuitively with a partner to traditional tango music. Kirsty will teach you an appreciation of the music from the 1920s onwards and how to dance to it. Tango is, put simply, a walking dance, with the emphasis on translating the music into your body. You will learn the core elements of tango, and you will build on your confidence, listening skills, ability to trust, and to communicate with clarity and clear intention.

Testimonial
The style of teaching was gentle, sensitive and a real awareness of what individuals needed. I did not once feel stupid during the weekend due to both tutors sensitivity to my learning ability, being a beginner to the whole area of tango this was really important to me. Thank you I liked the balance between the tutor and her assistant complemented each other well. I loved Kirsty's less is more philosophy and the simplicity of moves taught. Tig Land
