Darren & Zoe
Darren has been teaching in the UK for 15 years, teaching at many class nights and also on weekenders.
He started teaching both traditional tango and Neo/Alternative tango in 2008.
Darren can teach and dance BOTH lead and follow, his understanding of the dance, technique and music is a very unique gift, his ability to break down and communicate easily and clearly every nuance of this dance.
In 2016 Zoe joined him in teaching after learning for many years, her ability, attention to detail, understanding and clear teaching techniques, alongside also being able to dance and teach BOTH lead and follow make her also a unique teaching talent.
This Husband and Wife teaching team make a complete, fully rounded and ultra experienced teaching couple, they offer a fun, friendly approach to teaching making you feel relaxed, welcome and above all, an enjoyable experience while you learn this fantastic dance!
Tango Northampton teaching focuses for the first 45 minute beginners class on key foundation technique for both lead and follow. The next classes are then based on a 3 tier system approach of teaching, in brief terms:-
1) Where am I moving to? With which foot?
2) Once in bedded, learning correct technique for lead and follow
3) Learn how to dance to music!
These are tried, tested and trusted techniques to give you the confidence to dance socially tango at all levels from beginners to advanced in the UK
We are running the following classes:
Traditional Salon Style at Kislingbury on a Wednesday evening
Traditional Salon Style at Kettering on a Sunday evening
(No partner required)
