Description

(Expanded to 1.5 hours)
Sign up is for couples/partners “Bachatango” is a relatively new style of Latin dance that fuses the four-step pattern of the Dominican Bachata with Argentine Tango moves, including elaborated kicks, dips, turns, ganchos, leg wraps, and long pauses. Because of popular requests, class length has been expanded from 1.0 hrs. to 1.5 hours to allow for more practice time.  The first 2-3 classes of this five-class program will focus on participants learning the basics of the Bachata and American Tango dance patterns and moves, as well as Argentine Tango dance moves. The last 2-3 classes will concentrate on the fusion of the Bachata foot pattern with the moves of Bachata, American Tango, and Argentine Tango. No previous Bachata or Tango experience is required, but some experience in "couple" dancing would greatly enhance your learning experience. Participants will receive practice dance music and links to FaceBook videos, for outside class instruction. Participants are encouraged to video instruction portion of the class. Wear comfortable shoes, and bring a water bottle. Enrollment is limited to fifteen couples.
