Argentine Tango – Milonguero Style Volume II

Argentine Tango – Milonguero Style Volume II continues the Milonguero Tango series with Christy Coté & George Garcia, focusing on close-embrace Argentine Tango and expanding the material introduced in Volume I.

Designed for beginning to intermediate dancers, this second volume develops a broader vocabulary of figures and techniques while maintaining the close connection characteristic of Milonguero Style. The program covers movements including the Running Step, Point & Pivot, Barrida/Enganche, Cross System, Carpa, Sacadas, Volcada, Colgada, and Enganche.

Christy and George demonstrate the figures individually and then show how they can be incorporated naturally into improvisational Argentine Tango. Figures 11–15 and 16–20 are each followed by demonstrations in an improvisational format, helping dancers see how the movements can flow together in social dancing.

With approximately 60 minutes of instruction, Volume II is especially suitable for dancers continuing from Volume I who want to develop their close-embrace technique, partner connection, improvisation, and Milonguero Tango vocabulary.
