Hello everyone - I wanted to share with you some information I received from Javier Rochwarger concerning "The Changing Embrace" workshop that he'll be teaching on Saturday....
He would like you to know that the class goes beyond opening and closing the dance frame to explore the idea of "breaking" the embrace. With this idea, the follower gives their back to the leader, and then rapidly recovers the dance position in front of the leader, as in salsa or lindy hop, but within the context of tango technique. Javier taught this material at the Portland Tango Fest. to rave reviews! If you haven't had a chance yet to preregister for the workshops at a discounted price, I am extending preregistration to Wednesday - Javier and I will be at the Wednesday Tango Break, so feel free to hand me your preregistration forms there. Javier has a limited number of days in which to schedule private lessons - just Wed., Thurs., Fri. of this week, so be sure to let me know if you'd like to reserve a time slot! We look forward to seeing you soon - at the Tango Break, Tango Lounge, Blue Milonga, and of course at the Workshops!! Best wishes, Hillary
