June Mini Boot Camp - Sold out!
We will place strong emphasis on technique and provide you with a series of exercises that we routinely practice
ourselves. We will repeat them until you can execute them with ease. You will be working in front of the mirrors, so
you can make auto-corrections, and receive personalized attention from 2 instructors. Each workshop will be
followed by a practice session, where we will be available to give any additional pointers. We will videotape the
beginning and the end of the weekend session so you can follow your progress.

Reviews:
"We would like to say a massive thank you for your time and energy at the mini boot camp weekend.
It was most enjoyable and very surprising how subtle changes can make a very big difference.
Although we worked very hard, we felt encouraged to push ourselves just a little bit further, whilst having some fun at the same time.
Fundamentals are so important and ultimately have improved our enjoyment of dancing together with such connection."
"The material covered was extremely well thought out and very valuable in improving our dance. Olivera and Marek explained the concepts and made
corrections in a kind, gentle, and realistic manner. This made it perfectly clear what we were supposed to do and what the benefits were. The improvement
become apparent almost immediately. I don’t know of any other teachers who combine all these attributes so well, and we came away with the feeling that
everything we learned will stay with us on the dance floor, in both classes and milongas. My first thought, in subsequent classes, was to make sure that we
employed all the things that they showed us, not to attempt anything extra and to concentrate on connection between me and my partner on the dance floor.
Dancing with someone, however good they may look to the observer, who doesn’t place the same detail into the embrace, makes me long to get back to that
embrace."
"After taking your workshop, I found that establishing the embrace we were working on with you made all these new things seem much easier to absorb and
execute. Also I received many compliments even from dancers where I found the connection seemed to get lost a little while they performed some exotic move but I
found it easier to reconnect with them by being still and maintaining posture."
"Having recently attended Mini Boot Camp, we wish to extend our thanks to you both, for your patience and dedication in helping us on our tango journey. Our
tango journey has only just begun and whilst we worked extremely hard for 2 days, a vast improvement has been made. Now all we have to do is practice,
practice, practice.
Your enthusiasm and support to your students is so infectious, we've now really got the tango 'bug'."
"As tough as a Boot Camp but good fun too. The studio is perfect and to have such personal commitment from you, with only three couples, really does require a
strong commitment from us too, to listen and respond. In large groups it is too easy to hide and avoid our responsibilities. The benefit of the Boot Camp is that having
invested in that commitment we will be more determined to maintain it. This weekend made subtle changes to our style; and a very big change to our attitude. The
mark of a good Boot Camp; would we come again? Without a doubt. Thank you."

Frequently asked questions:
1. I’m an experienced dancer. Why should I take the boot camp?
In our boot camps we work on basic elements and every good dancer is constantly trying to improve. Once you stop working on your tango then the quality of your
dance goes down. The boot camp is designed for all levels. And you will be practicing and dancing constantly with your own partner. If there is a wide range of
experience among the couples, it won’t interfere /affect your skill. There are two instructors, so you will have plenty of attention and pointers to improve your dance.
2. Are you always teaching the same thing? Should I take the boot camp again?
We chose a different topic to concentrate on for each boot camp. To work with us repeatedly is very beneficial for your dancing; because we will help you “clean up”
any bad habits that may form. In all couples who took the boot camps with us, we see a big improvement, which they are able to maintain.
3. The boot camp is too expensive!
Actually, it is not. For £60, you receive 4 hours of workshops + 1.5 h of guided practica. That’s £10.90/hour in a small group setting (6 people max) with 2 teachers
constantly looking after you.
