Master Competitive Tango Through Strong Fundamentals
Tango requires a distinctive combination of precision, control, balance, timing, and powerful partner coordination. In this installment of the Believe in Basics series, Victor Fung & Anna Mikhed explore how these qualities can be developed through a focused study of fundamental International Tango figures.
The program begins with essential concepts of position, poise, and frame, establishing the structural foundation needed for effective partnership. Victor and Anna then work through a selection of fundamental and developing figures, showing how changes in rotation, timing, speed, and movement quality can dramatically enhance even relatively simple choreography.
Routine and full dance demonstrations help connect the individual figures into practical dancing and show how strong fundamentals contribute to a polished overall performance.
