Advance to the final stage of Tango Foundations, incorporating six new figures that build upon those in Tango Foundations - I. Throughout this series, our focus is on dynamism and creativity in tango by developing existing figures and introducing new ones. We will further develop our understanding of the flow state with six new Flow Concepts from modern science and psychology, emphasising integration, creativity, and the synergy of the left and right brain. Mastery of Tango Foundations - I, II, and III prepares you to transition to intermediate tango dancing, bringing you closer to the deeply satisfying and elusive experience of Flow.
Tango Foundations - II is optional for this series.
