Advanced Argentine Tango: The Art of Control and Choice (Approval Needed)

**Refine Your Tango. Deepen the Conversation.** This advanced Tango class is for experienced dancers ready to move beyond steps and into intention, precision, and musical depth. We’ll focus on the subtleties that separate competent dancers from compelling ones — control, timing, embrace, and choice. This is not a review of fundamentals; it’s a space to sharpen them under pressure. Admission is by instructor approval to ensure a focused, high-level learning environment for everyone in the room. **What You’ll Work On:** * Advanced navigation and floorcraft for social milongas * Refined embrace, axis control, and weight transfers * Musical interpretation beyond the phrase — pauses, suspensions, and contrast * Complex turns, changes of direction, and shared balance * Nuanced lead/follow dialogue rooted in technique, not force * Dancing with clarity, calm, and intention **Class Details:** **📅 Every Tuesday, 8:00 PM** **Pricing:** 💲 Single Class: *$17* 💲 Class Pack Options: *$75 for 5 classes* **Prerequisite:** Solid command of Tango fundamentals, comfort with close and open embrace, and regular social dancing experience. Instructor approval required prior to attending. **Ready to dance with more depth?** Speak with the instructor or visit www.sonataroom.com to request approval.

Learn and enjoy dances from around the world

We dance on Thursdays 8:00 - 10:00 PM at the Nourishing Spirits Center on the campus of St. George's Episcopal Church, 808 Foothill Blvd., in La Canada. Whether you're new to folk dancing or experienced, we hope you’ll join us for fun and beautiful dances from around the world. This may be long, but we think you will find it helpful. This event is part of an ongoing group, and you are welcome to come any week. For your first visit, please try to arrive 5-10 minutes early so we can say hello before teaching starts. We will teach several dances appropriate for both new and experienced dancers for half an hour or so, and there will be more dances you can join in after that. You will be dancing the first evening, even if you have never danced before. The particular dances we teach each week will depend on the dance experience of our participants. We'll have a break at 9:00 for refreshments and socializing and then dance again until 10:00. (If you can't stay that late, it's perfectly fine to leave early.) Your $5 helps pay our rent. This is not a business. We dance for the joy of it. We are a very friendly group and very supportive of new participants. The teaching is extremely popular. No one is ever pressured or put on the spot. Our only goal is to have fun together. We no longer require vaccinations or masks, but we encourage good health practices, and some participants wear masks. We use Meetup only to attract new participants (like you!) and not for our normal communications. To learn more about our group or to contact us, please visit [Foothill.Dance](https://Foothill.Dance) (no .com, .org, .net, or .anything else is needed). We hope you can join us soon for a fun evening of dancing and socializing. Jan & Marc Rayman
