BA & Europe 2023

Plan your programme for December-January 2023-4…

Seminars & Workshops

The content of group classes can be tailored to suit your community’s interests and needs:

• Elements & Combinations – in memorable, usable structures, danced in a comfortable and enjoyable way
• Technique – follower/leader, or for both roles. These classes would usually begin with exercises and in-depth investigation of fundamental movements, and build towards a sequence which challenges balance, coordination and musicality
• Musicality – focus on different orchestras, different periods, or the essential features of tango music which can help us enjoy our dancing more!
• Choreology – a unique approach to expressiveness, musicality and flow in tango: bringing elements of contemporary dance (dynamics, directions, space and scale) to challenge your habits and bring expression to your whole dancing body, not just the ‘tango face’!

Private Classes

Classes for individuals or couples allow us to focus on each dancer’s habits, strengths and weaknesses, using the wealth of technique, biomechanics, musicality and sheer love of dance I have developed over many years!

‘Good’ technique enables us to dance comfortably and communicate well; it should always be at the service of enjoying and experiencing dance, connection, and confidence.

Smaller communities

Many touring teachers focus on established tango ‘centres’ , but as a UK and EU resident I don’t have the same time pressure over the summer; I am really looking forward to meeting your community as you come back to tango, attract new members and enjoy everything tango can offer us today!

“We have worked with many Tango teachers and Caroline is amongst the very best. 

Whether Leading or Following her advice is loaded with practical experience gained while living and teaching in Buenos Aires – her tuition is consistent, clear, precise and fun.”

Performances

Tango Café

Tango Café developed from a conversation with Raúl Palladino, Primož Krajnik and Janja Frank while we were working together in Ljubljana. We love the information ‘behind’ the music we dance to – details of the lyrics, the conventions of the time, recording technology, anecdotes about the huge personalities behind the orchestras we love. All this enriches our dancing and, ultimately, our enjoyment of what we do.

Tango Café takes the form of an informal demonstration, with stories, specially selected musical examples and physical embodiment of what we hear. The ideal audience arrangement is cabaret-style: small tables, candlelight, and a glass of wine, with space for couples to dance if they would like to during the evening.

We travel through time from the tangos of the early 20th century to present-day orchestras and singers, and the focus can be specially adapted to your group. There is also a ‘Introduction to Tango’ version which can act as a first taste of tango music for people who are taking their very first classes!
