Richard and Colette Workshop August 31st – September 3rd 2007
Classes are based on diverse and essential tango concepts of the social dance. Richard and Colette talk about the “Abrazo” close and open embrace experience. They explain the foundation of rhythm: simple, double and syncopated. Emphasis is placed on the art of the walk, such as changes of direction with style and elegance.
