Pre-Advanced Tango

The pre-Advanced course introduces more advanced tango elements such as forward and back sacadas, forward and back boloes, ganchos and enganchos (wraps), colgadas, volcadas, cadenas, alterations, barridas, and more.

PLEASE NOTE: The pre-advanced level consists of 12 series that keep rotating. You can take the series in any order. It is important though that you take them all.

WHY PRE-ADVANCED?

There are a lot of Argentine Tango elements that are not extremely necessary to dance. They create the next level of understanding, like a specialized vocabulary while learning a language.

Each new element is introduced from its very beginning. We show you how and why the element was born. We also show from which movement it was derived so you can use the knowledge you already have.  Since everything is new and your body needs some time to process and adjust - the combinations introduced are the most basic ones. Tough be aware that ‘basic’ here translates more into ‘most often used’ rather than ‘the easiest’.

In this course, you may find people who are learning about boloes, ganchos, sacadas, volcadas, or colgadas for the first time, those who already dance the elements, but want to clarify the technique, and those who simply are here for more practice. Let the best ones elevate those who are just starting. This way, as a community, we all progress at lightning speed.
