Steps to select Tango Dance
Rhythm
1.
First try to find the phrasing by
listening to some popular classic songs. You are required to find 8-count
phrases while dancing. For this, you can begin from counting each 8-count
phrase in the song. In case you lose rhythm, you can get help from orchestra
because it clearly makes a difference among current and next phrase.
2.
Start walking to the music beat i.e.
by taking one step in each beat. Make sure next phrase starts when one ends,
although walk cannot be changed. So, you have to perform regular practice until
you can easily step on each beat.
3.
You can add steps among two beats.
Since tango has both single time and double time steps, you should focus on
8-count phrases and the music.
4.
Also concentrate on tango rhythm if
you are dancing with your partner. As a leader, make sure to clearly
communicate on dual-time steps with leading her to walk with the music beat. As
a follower, all you have to step according to the beat. If he is walking too
fast, slow your steps down and if he is walking too slow, try to fasten your
moves.
5.
After picking up the rhythm, you can
include any footwork you may be aware of in order to dance with. If you want to
be with both beat and dancing, all you have to concentrate only on 8-count
phrasing.
Summary
As
compared to the leader, follower has more responsibilities in tango dance
rhythms. While dancing, just listen to the music and ensure that you are dancing
to the beat as much as possible. If you can grasp the tango rhythm, you can
easily incorporate both single-time and double-time dance steps. However, you
can only consider this as a tool because tango dance is of improvised nature. If
you are beginning to learn ballroom
dance lessons, it is best to join the nearest dance studio than you can
choose from various options of learning the challenging steps of tango dance.
