PRIVATE TANGO LESSONS
With Florencia GARCIA and Jérémy BRAITBART
PRESENTATION OF PRIVATE LESSONS
Why take a private Tango lesson?
to Pass a course in your dance. Do you feel that you are no longer making progress in your dance? Do you need clarification?
to Work on certain types of sequences. You want to explore a particular concept or figure.
to Find a particular "tuning" with your partner
to work specifically on stage Tango, to learn or improve
to Prepare a Choreography for an important event for you (Demonstration, Dance of Wedding, Evjf, ...)
Because your schedule does not allow you to attend group classes regularly.
What is a private lesson exactly?
A private Tango lesson is above all a moment for yourself...
A moment of work, precision, sometimes introspection, but it is above all a moment of pleasure.
Do you want to review the fundamentals? Or work on your posture? Or venture into complex sequences while being sure to find the keys? Or go more precisely in a physical work specific to tango? Or build together a choreography that suits you? The teacher is there to answer your requests and guide you towards what seems appropriate to him at the stage where you are in your dance.
There is no classic process since the idea is really to adapt to each individual according to their request and what we observe at the time.

TEACHERS
These classes are led by Florencia Garcia and Jérémy Braitbart , two dancers recognized in the Argentine Tango community as much for their dance as for their pedagogy .
OUR PEDAGOGY
Argentine Tango is a popular, urban and improvised dance.
It was invented by "normal" people, not by dancers! People who wanted to walk together and feel the music together through a real embrace called the Abrazo.
Which means that it is for everyone, that it is accessible to everyone, regardless of age, size, build, dance experience and emotional state at the time. That anyone can come without predisposition, particular qualification or prior knowledge. That it is aimed at all generations and all personalities.
It is therefore essential for us that in learning this dance everyone can feel comfortable and welcome. For this we offer simple body images and approaches so that everyone has access to Tango and that it is done in the pleasure of new sensations. We avoid making it too technical a dance.
We bring our students to Tango through its music, its dance and the Argentine culture, always evoking the ball (the milonga) and its "codes".
It seems fundamental to us that our students know the basic sequences of Argentine Tango and that they know how to improvise with these elements instead of reproducing useless choreographies that are generally impossible to place at a ball.
According to us Tango is like a language. It can be practiced with little vocabulary at the start. Then over time we learn the conjugations and the accent of this language as well as its identity and its own expressions.
In our bodily approach we use our in-depth knowledge of anatomy: Florencia was trained in the anatomy of the human body and Jérémy studied as a Masso-Physiotherapist.
But we place particular emphasis on the sensations to be explored and that we have developed in the ball over the years and in our different practices. Florencia is a certified yoga teacher and Jérémy is a former gymnast.
We try to bring our students to rediscover their own walk, to remain themselves in front of the other and to seek above all the pleasure of dancing .
In our teaching we talk about anchoring, connection, posture, embrace among other concepts.
The course generally consists of technical work relevant to the topic addressed, then work on a sequence. We then develop different possibilities of improvisation from the sequence. Finally, a time is given to the practice of the sequence by integrating it into the improvisation of the dance in ballroom conditions.
