Concept 1: The Body in Space: Spirals and Circularity
Saturday 11th November The Strand, Applecross, 10:00am - 3:00pm
In this Concept, we focus on the study of directions and
speed of movement while understanding how the body generates inside and outside
spirals to create torque and dynamics. We aim to explore these details while
maintaining control and connection in turns.
Concept 2: The Other Side of the Mood: Fantasies in the Cross-System
Sunday 12th November The Strand, Applecross, 11:00am - 4:30pm
This Concept will explore the fundamental relationships between leaders
and followers in creating and communicating in the dance. Via this
understanding, synchronization, connection and creativity in the cross-system
will be explored, all with the intention of helping to enrich the relationship
and communication between the couple and improve dynamics in the dance.
What is a Concept?
A workshop will explore the relevant ideas within a short
time frame of no more than 2 hours. A concept is at least 4 hours in length,
with an hour break for lunch (supplied). It is designed to explore the relevant tango
'concept' from the ground up and will allow you to develop with your partner to
the level that is suitable for you.
Concepts are special intensives organised
by TangoSpace where over four hours a single idea or tango ‘concept’ is built
from the ground up. Students MUST enrol with a partner (note: We do not care about gender balance as long as there is a leader and a follower).
Throughout the Concept you work with your partner to your desired level.
Concepts are divided into two 2 hour sessions with a 1 hour break in between.
You must enrol for the full four hours. But the good news is that within the
hour break, we will supply you with lunch. Concepts cost $150 per person.
November 2017
TangoSpace is pleased to welcome Maria Filali and Gianpiero Galdi to Perth in November 2017. We are excited to offer a program of Concepts to help Perth dancers develop their tango. More information is to come.
