Workshop 2
Body Systems, Movement Qualities, and the Tango Orchestra
Each body system offers a unique pathway to movement, expression, and musical interpretation. Through guided exploration, we will discover how different physical qualities can illuminate the character of various tango orchestras and enrich our dancing.
Bones
Structure • Direction • Beat
The skeletal system provides clarity, organization, and rhythmic precision. We will explore movement that is grounded, direct, and architecturally clear.
Orchestra: D’Arienzo
Concepts: Ocho Cortado and rhythmic patterns
Fluids
Yielding • Transition • Flow
The fluid system invites continuity, adaptability, and seamless movement. We will cultivate a sense of effortless flow and connection.
Orchestra: Fresedo
Concept: “Ocho World”
2:15pm – 2:30pm
Break
_____________
2:30pm – 3:45pm
Workshop 3
Organs
Emotional Tone • Phrasing • Expansion
The organ system brings depth, breath, and expressive presence to movement. We will explore how phrasing and emotional intention shape the dance.
Orchestra: Troilo
Concepts: Giros and Turns
Muscles
Dynamics • Power • Syncopation
The muscular system supports contrast, energy, and dynamic change. We will investigate acceleration, suspension, and rhythmic complexity.
Orchestra: Pugliese
Concepts: Alterations and dynamic variations so make sure to sign up for them!
