Sacadas are actually supposed to be soft, but clear. This is how your partner should feel them.

The beauty of the ladies’ dance is empowered by their technique – weight, balance, posture, pivots – controlling all these elements is its source. Beauty is not given by an insane amount of decorations, just like too many adornments in an outfit can be a disaster. But mastering the enrosque and using it in the right way, at the right time, is what can definitely set us apart.

This lesson will bring you tips on various moments like, faking a parada, holding the anticipation impulse, working in tandem. And last, but not least – a styling advice – finish an event the same way you started it. According to the classics, beauty means symmetry. And we could borrow this definition for our dance, from time to time, right?

Tango means couple. It’s born in couple, it’s grown in couple, it’s enjoyed in couple.

Is combining a front boleo and an enrosque even possible? Make no mistake, it is. But what’s rather not so common is combining them, while not loosing connection and not braking our embrace, thus missing all those feelings that only a real embrace can offer. In this lesson, the maestros will showcase how to balance the warmth of the embrace and the thrill of boleos and enrosques.

Did you know that repositioning while building combinations with boleos could offer you the opportunity to add an enrosque to it?Actually, embracing this opportunity is the one that will inspire you to add a different enrosque. Find brand new insights on this subject, right in this lesson.
