Tango Argentino u Zadru – Hrvatska – Naslovnica
For a class project, each group is going to demonstrate a dance…?
From a certain time period. What would be a good idea? I’m a fairly good dancer, trained in ballet, but my partners kind of suck. I really want to do the Argentine Tango, but it’s too difficult, especially for the other kids. But I don’t want to do something too simple like the Electric Slide. Any ideas?
you don’t necessarily have to do argentine tango, but could simply do american smooth tango. if you just perform the basic step, they should get it fairly simply. guys start with left, ladies with right. guys go forward slow(L), slow(R), quick(L), side quick(R), slow(drag L to R). ladies are the natural opposite going backwards. hope this helps. otherwise, why not try the waltz? it’s very victorian and all you have to do is make a box on the floor with your feet.

Do Michael Jackson’s THRILLER! Right now, there are VERY good step-by-step videos on how to do the dance. (Or you can go onto thrilltheworld.com where there are all the videos and also notes of the entire dance.) I am learning it just for fun right now!

then do something that you and your partner can both do. just start with the basic then add some of your style. and his style. can you do that? are you allowed?
do a choreography then balance the steps. easy, mediocre, then hard. with practice, they can eventually get it. trust them. motivete them. ♥
just have fun too. dont be so serious about it, they might end up hating you for giving them a hard time for a dance that they cant do…yet.
