Using the videos in this folder and

If you have any questions, find me or ask by email. - Jim

- the first part (4 - 10 sec),
- the middle part (13 - 19 sec), and
- the last part (22 - 27 sec)?
question 2
- Describe what they're doing.
- Is this open or close embrace, and what makes it so?
question 3
- What are those big follower leg movements (09-10 sec), and
- how are they being led?
- At what point does the follower "go to the cross", and
- how is that that being led?

question 4
Explain what style of tango is being danced in
each of these two clips, and what makes you think so.
question 5
Describe and name at least five different tango movements that you see in this video clip. (If you need more inspiration, you may also use
either of the videos from question 4.)
sources
All but one of these clips are from longer videos you can watch online,
and I encourage you to do so.
