Tangodurians

Brilliant teaching, humorous, insightful, emphasis on axis and movement that I've missed so much. Reminds me of the level that Mtango manages to reach too on a weekly basis. Sigh. One of the best workshops I've done, learnt a wealth of info.

Mmmmmm, that was a good tanda =). Thanks for reassuring me that I havn't lost it =).

“You have to love dancing to stick to it. It gives you no manuscripts to store away, no paintings to show on walls, no poems to be printed; nothing but that fleeting moment when you feel really alive. It is not for unsteady souls.”

Will you be my La Cumparsita?

Violin's are gorgeous instruments in the right hand. In the wrong hand, they sound horrendous. Absolutely and utterly. In the same way, Tango can range from awkward to sublime. Painful to ecstasy. The inbetweens of the whites and blacks of a keyboard, the places in between that the flats and sharps do not do justice to. This is what a violin captures that a piano does not. This is the space of waiting before the step and the drop of the finger. Step because the music tells you to, not because the pattern dictates it. Greatest point to take in the Tango journey.
