Advanced Beginner Intensive (Level 2): October 26 & 27

October 26, 2024

The Advanced Beginner Intensive prepares students to take any intermediate-level classes or workshops at the Philadelphia Argentine Tango School. To prepare for the Advanced Beginner Intensive, students should take the Beginner Intensive, or attend Wednesday 8 pm Beginner classes for at least one month (or have equivalent experience).


All students will practice both roles.  Because we are practicing both roles, even students with much more experience can benefit from taking the Advanced Beginner Intensive.


Topics covered include:


* Cross System

* The Cross Basic Step

* Back Ochos and steps that are easily accessible from them

* Lead-and-follow improvisation

* Navigation of the social dance floor

* Basic musicality: Phrasing and the Beat
