Description: 

Take your tango to the next level by mastering the art of off-axis movement. In this advanced class, we’ll dive deep into the technique and partnering required to create smooth, expressive volcadas and colgadas. These dynamic movements demand not only precision and balance, but also a refined sense of shared axis, trust, and timing.

You’ll learn how to initiate and sustain off-axis shapes with clarity, how to maintain connection while shifting the axis toward or away from your partner, and how to transition in and out of these moments with control and flow. We’ll focus on both the leader’s and follower’s responsibilities, developing a responsive and stable partnership that makes these movements feel effortless and musical.
