Advanced Beginner/Intermediate Tango - Colgadas and Volcadas 101

In this series, we will break down what many view to be among the most impressive moves of tango dance. We will work on maintaining the axis for both single axis turns and dancing apilado (forward lean) to produce dynamic and sumptuous colgadas and volcadas. We will discuss appropriate use of muscle relaxation and focal strengthening to improve comfort and ease of these more advanced movements.
