        Tango Classes with Iryna Ilyk & Luis Zuleta

        Expansion Wellness Center
        3803 Bute St., Houston, TX  77006

        Tuesday 8:30pm: Intermediate
        Wednesday 8pm: Followers technique
        Saturday 3:30-5:30: Practica & Tango Etiquette

        http://www.beintango.com
        email Iryna: beintango at gmail.com

        Beginners

        The program includes 4 weeks’ cycle to introduce the
        dancer to linear and circular movement, tango, and its
        specifics. Classes cover such aspects as balance, axes,
        and dissociation exercises. We learn to dance in tango
        embrace and communicate through it.

        Intermediate

        Classes are balanced between techniques of body movement
        and emotional connection through the dance. Open
        conversations on psychology of tango and its input in
        our life. Techniques bring higher awareness of your body,
        focusing on nonverbal communication with the partner to
        create very smooth movement together. Establishing clear
        understanding of the leader and follower role in the dance
        to become one. Musicality classes to allow you to feel
        the entire depth of the beautiful Argentinian Tango music
        and to find you own way to interpret it on the dance floor.

        Followers

        Everyone who wants to improve their skills as a follower
        and learn more about the follower’s role in tango is
        welcome. Please bring your questions and we will discover
        the answers together. Throughout this series we will not
        only be growing in our technical skills, extending our
        sensitivity, and practicing nonverbal conversation with our
        partner, but also having fun learning our responsibilities
        as a follower.
