Is the Basico, which consists of a simple walking step done in time with the music. This basic step forms the foundation for all other tango movements and helps students develop their balance and connection with their dance partner.
OCHO (EIGHT) The Ocho is a figure-eight movement that involves pivoting around a central axis. This movement is essential for learning the circular nature of tango and helps students understand the concept of leading and following in the dance.
GANCCHO (HOOK) The Ganccho is a leg hooking movement that adds flair and style to tango choreography. This movement is often used as an embellishment in tango routines and can be challenging for students to master, but provides a visually striking element to performances.
MOLINETE (WINDMILL) The Molinete is a circular movement that involves pivoting around the dance floor in a continuous loop. This movement helps students understand the concept of flow and continuity in tango and allows for seamless transitions between different figures and steps.
SACADA (INTERCEPTION) The Sacada is a complex movement that involves one partner intercepting the step of the other partner. This requires precise timing and coordination between the dancers, as well as a clear understanding of the space and distance between partners.
