Ritmo Intensivo Bootcamp: July 20-22, 2006

Milonga and Valz Cruzada

We are pleased to announce the first Talahassee "Ritmo Intensivo" BOOTCAMP focusing on the "milonga argentina" and "vals cruzado", sister and brother of the Argentine tango.

These two characteristic rhythms complement the trilogy of music played and danced at a tango dance party, a.k.a milonga. They add the necessary variety to a well-rounded evening of tango dancing. The milonga is playful and mischievous; the vals is elegant and romantic. Their rhythms are rich with nuances and challenges.

BOOTCAMP participants will be presented with a complete set of typical vals and milonga patterns broken down progressively from class to class. Each session will be structured with elements of technique, musicality and styling. Participants will be drilled and challenged with plenty of practice time.
