A Note from Fabio, Nadim, Leonel and Bill:

As Tango Leaders, we are constantly changing and adapting to the various elements that affect our dancing.  Whether it is the music, our partner or the dancefloor, we utilise various Elements to totally immerse ourself in our dance.

Join us as we explore the Four elements of Leading from the flow of Water, the grounding of Earth, the playfulness of Air and the intensity of Fire.

We will explore each element and look at their contrasting states to help you in understanding how leading is constantly changing depending on what you want to achieve in that special moment.  

In addition to practical exercises to demonstrate these Elements, we will associate them to various Orchestras to further illustrate the concepts.

Fire – The Intensity of Pugliese

Water – The Density of Di Sarli

Air – The Playfulness of  Troilo

Earth – The picado & staccato movements of D’arienzo

This Workshop is ideal for experienced leaders and to those that have recently started their Leading journey. This workshop is also suitable to followers who are generally interested in understanding the Leaders role (and maybe be motivated to try leading!).

Although we have collaborated individually in the past, we are very excited to have  a 4 way collaboration for the first time in Australia!

We highly recommend booking as early as possible to secure your spot in this unique and exciting workshop.
