Technique for walking and connection
Change of dynamics and levels
Music interpretation
Technique for adornos
Improvisation training
Quality and smooth movements

Sunday 12.30 – 3.45 Milonga intensive seminar
This intensive course explores all the aspects of Milonga, from the technique of movement to the history and concept of the dance. Learn how to understand and express milonga in your dance and how the connection in the embrace works in this rhythmical and fun dance.

Technique for walking and movements in milonga
Concepts of milonga and rhythm
Connection and improvisation
