Tango Ramp Up with Emily Webb
Leg Conversations: Barridas, Ganchos & Enganches
In this workshop, we'll explore barridas (sweeps), ganchos, and enganches—movements that create a captivating conversation between partners through the legs. Whether smooth and silky or sharp and dynamic, these moves can add texture, musicality, and fun to your dance.
Perfect for beginner/intermediate and intermediate dancers:
• New to these movements? You'll receive a clear, welcoming introduction and a solid technical foundation.
• Already familiar with them? You'll refine your technique, improve your timing, and discover new possibilities for connection and play.
What you'll learn:
• How to avoid common habits that make barridas, ganchos, and enganches feel awkward or forced
• The essential mechanics of balance, grounding, and leg dissociation that make these movements feel effortless
• How to create clear communication between partners for smooth, comfortable execution
• Core principles that apply across a variety of sweeps, hooks, and wraps
• A few flowing combinations you can take straight onto the dance floor
When danced well, these figures feel natural, connected, and deeply satisfying for both partners. You'll leave with stronger technique, greater confidence, and more freedom to explore playful legwork in your tango.
With a maximum of 12 students, you'll receive personalized attention and plenty of opportunities to progress at your own pace.
Don't miss out—let's ramp up your tango together!
