about the tango training with Marisa & Oliver ...

 

Content of the training
In our training we distinguish 3 different levels:
1) quality (technique, position, movement, leading/following, finishing touch)
2) figures (simple elements as well as longer sequences, salon figures and tango fantasia)
3) musicality (rhythm, melody, adornments)

 

Training series
We organize training cycles of 6 months (10 to 14 lessons) in which we try to look deeper into one or several themes. Three weeks prior to the start of a new cycle we announce the dates of the lessons. In general, within a cycle of 2 months three to four of the weekly lessons are cancelled due to holiday, work abroad, performance... Every 6 classes we organize a  review of all the material formerly dealt with. It is only possible to enroll in the complete cycle; moreover so because they will have priority. Participation in single lessons is only possible if  the maximum amount of participants has not yet been reached. 

 

Levels
We have made the following level distinction:
- level 1: initiation, no tango experience whatsoever
- level 1a: minimum 1 month practice - knowledge of the basics (salida, salida cruzada, ochos)
