Group Classes Alejandra Gutty • Tango Coaching® | Weekly Tango Training #70

We Study + We Practice = We Train.

AIR IN THE KNEES

Unlocked and available knees. Extend and flex the legs pro-gres-sive-ly – without changing the floating level. Extend or flex without collapsing.
Fold the knees – just like the elbows fold.

INTERNAL REBOUND

Use flexion both to depart and to arrive: absorb the impact. Weight circulates through the entire body.

THE PIVOT HAS MELODY

By enabling knee ‘flexion’ and unlocking the shoulder girdle—expanding the range of torsion—we will achieve more control, more subtleties, and richer qualities.

BACK: the chest, ready to embrace.

From above/front = usually moves with legs as a block.
From below/back = moves with grounded feet, allowing articulated, flexible, and POWERFUL bodies.

Practice with CLEAR GUIDELINES. Explore the journey of the step: the in-between.

We already know where we’re going, the direction of movement—now it’s a matter of when and how. The more interesting our questions, the more interesting our dance will be.

We’re working with a super-simple ‘medio giro’ sequence.
But when we train it with these GUIDELINES, the result is different: mega pivots and beautiful dynamic effects. With this level of thought construction, of awareness, the sequence truly transforms. Try it with THESE guidelines and let us know how it goes.

We put into practice the embrace changes (1, 2, and 3) from Training #15.
Everything is connected—little by little, we’ll integrate the journey together.

‘We do deliberate practice to master the task, not to finish it.’
