Understanding “Ganchos”
This 2-week course does just what it says on the tin! Two weeks to get your teeth into “ganchos”.
If you don’t know what a “gancho” is, you’ve probably seen one! The gancho is one of the most distinctive moves in tango. The follower or leader hooks their leg around their partner’s leg. Amazingly, this move is actually led and doesn’t need to be pre-choreographed. And this is precisely what we’ll be learning to do in these lessons!
