NUEVO SEMINAR
Dance Nuevo, Stay Tanguero/a – Maintaining the Quality of Tango Nuevo
During Neo Nights Casino we will offer a 6-hour intensive seminar on Tango Nuevo with Emile Sansour and Simge Yüz. The seminar consists of 2 x 3 hours including a short break each day. A prior registration is necessary.
Times:
Friday, 8th November 2024, 17:00 – 20:00 and
Saturday, 9th November 2024, 15:00 – 18:00
Venue: Casino Baden-Baden (in Kurhaus Baden-Baden), Kaiserallee 1, 76530 Baden-Baden
About the seminar:
In this seminar we will deal with selected nuevo elements such as colgadas, soltadas, sacadas, planeos, counterbalance boleos, stops, turns and their changes of direction as well as axis turns for followers.
It is particularly important to us how these elements can actually be realised in dance.
We explain what we mean by this below:
We are passionate lovers of tango nuevo and enjoy dancing to neo/non music. At the same time, we are convinced milonguero dancers and can understand that some traditionalists shudder at the sight of some neo dancers.
It is therefore important to us to maintain a high quality of tango nuevo.
Tango Nuevo is a development of tango that should remain healthy and feel and be danced like real tango. To promote this development, a deep understanding of tango is required. It is also important to differentiate the dance from other influences such as contact tango, freestyle and fantasia, but also free it from theatricality, esotericism and ballet.
Let’s discover and dance Tango Nuevo together, while always preserving the essence and quality of traditional tango.
About the teachers:
Emile Sansour has been teaching Tango for over 30 years. Tango Nuevo is his specialty. He is the founder of Intango, the first Tango school in Heidelberg, and one of the pioneers of Tango in Southern Germany. Emile has trained numerous tango dancers who are now tango teachers themselves. He teaches together with Simge Yüz who also received her tango teacher/dancer training from Emile.
