Join me in the magical Bergamo

for a full immersion in Contact Tango!

Contact Tango is the unique and playful fusion of

Contact Improvisation and Tango Argentino dance styles.

These two distinct but related dance styles share the fundamental elements of

connection and improvisation at the core of their technique

which are fundamental to fosters creativity and expression.

These four days alternate studio-based work on the fundamental principles of Contact Tango with forest bathing/short hiking adventures

and finally, relaxed evening JaMilongas dancing.

By attuning to the natural environment and slowing down,

we can observe what is often invisible and too small  to be noticed.

We will then apply this awareness to our movement's curiosity and our dancing.

We will decide on the schedule together, largely depending on the weather.

For example, 3 hours of tuition (10 am to 1 pm) lunch, a walk in the nearby woods, some free time, dinner and 4 hours dancing or any combination of those above.

For an idea of what we will work on, please check the topics of this previous Intensive.

We will have the whole studio for 4 days from around 9 am to 11 pm. We can decide on a timetable together, partly because of adapting to the weather. There will be at least 2/4 hours of training daily and at least 2 dancing evenings.

Lunches and dinners: apart from several nearby places where we could eat, there is also a large supermarket 10 minutes from the studio where we could get food to share.

The Retreat will include optional walks to nearby local attractions. A large forest is only 10 minutes from the Studio. Please bring appropriate footwear!

Max participants: 14
