thank you from uk... yes ,,, but I was of the understanding that for a good pivot one must also keep the supporting knee slightly bent.. I noticed that yours are quite straight.. is this the case.?? please let me know.. thank you!

@davidphillips79 Ай бұрын
Good attention to detail. However, the wide, loose pants legs conceal the *soft* knee of the supporting leg. By "soft," I mean neither stiff nor bent. When standing on both feet, with soft knees we should be able to shake our knees back and forth. Can't do that with stiff or actually bent knees. Thanks for the question!

Wow! Very well explained. Ocho starting on 1,4 are certainly interesting! Ochitos look fun too! For ocho on 1, when does the leader change the weight from right foot to left foot before stepping diagonally backwards? TIA
@davidphillips79
@davidphillips79 3 ай бұрын
Think of our four feet, my two and my partner's two, standing on the corners of a square. If we both shift our weight to the hand side (HS) or the arm side (AS), then we are both standing on the side of the box. For a super compact ocho-we can even do a 360-degree turn right on the same spot!-we shift our weight to diagonally-opposite corners, putting us in cross-system (CS). So, for example, I shift my weight to HS while turning my torso towards AS, sending my partner to the opposite corner. Now I can step back and around myself with the AS (right) leg, clearing space for my partner to step forward and around me with their HS (right; we are in CS) leg. I hope that describes what you are interested in. A suggestion for content-based questions is to give us the timestamp where the action in question occurs in the video. Thank you for the question!

Exactly! Choreography can be useful as a mental exercise and to give us experience combining moves in a way that flows. For social dancing at a crowded milonga, we need to be able to break things apart to fit the music and the space.

@@tangotribe1283 Thank you once again. Your philosophy or concept of fixed routines completely agrees with my assessment of dancing ( other dance genres) as a whole. I find choreographies grow old very quickly with constant use. I do still rely on choreographers to help me plan and enrich "what to do next" . Your demo at the end of your video is one excellent example.

Wow! Argen & Tina cover so many important points. Here's a summary: 1. Simplify - Isolate the problem step of a figure. 2. Change speed - Super-slow tests our stability. Super-fast tests our control. 3. Avoid 'end gaining' - When we go for an effect (e.g., the leg interaction in a sacada), it may be merely a byproduct of the attention we must give to previous steps. 4. Focus on the Follower - The Follower moves are the effect we want to achieve - When we better understand what and when our partner wants to feel something in the lead, then we are better able to give clear, comfortable signals. 5. Change frame - Allow our frame to slide or expand as necessary to accommodate our movement around each other. 6. Check geometry - Look for each partner's newly landed step to form a stable triangle between the feet of their partner. 7. Video review - Use regular video reviews of your own dancing to inform you about what to work on. 8. Previous step - Be aware that problems we experience with the current step "B" probably arise from previous step "A". Do we control the step timing and placement, and the embrace so that each step flows smoothly from the previous one?
