Tango Argentino private and group class by Jelena
From 37.48 £ /h
Tango structure, technique, expressiveness, musical identity and dance. Dance communication programs for improving life and tango skills (PokreTTAngo, Stretch-tango, TangoZavrk and ...).
An important part of the dance is belief in the aesthetics and should not be neglected. When we start to feel comfortable with the movement in body and mind, we can focus on the beauty of its external shape for us and then with person with whom we are creating tango story. Changing the phrases and essence of movement and motion can bring great diversity in the dance. Even in the simplest movements. This again enables us to interpret many different music with the awareness of motion optimization and mutual communication.

About Me
I have been dancing since I was 5 years old in verified dance schools from the city of Zagreb.
I've been teaching tango argentino for 20 years. I started teaching tango argentino because I noticed the neglect of congenital factors of it as dance, music and written and spoken words, and as a social phenomenon.
My dance ❤️ is also innovator of dance communication programs for improving life and tango skills (PokreTTAngo, TangoZavrk and ...).
Students are talking about my ability to adapt the idea on innovation way so that students can understand and apply the material in any segment.
Tips on musicality, also offering, accepting, creating idea of the movement and how we can express ourselvesas individuals and in pairs. In this way the dancers tango argentino of all levels should be able to take a certain part of the lesson with them and are encouraged to evolve.
Making an effort to approach each student and couple individually. Having and transmitting a clear idea and changing it in some moments is extremely important.

Dancers as equals in the couple and they both contribute to the dance equally.
Communication goes both ways. By suggesting, understanding and sharing a movement inspired by each other on the music we are both actively and willingly participating in the creating dance story.
