SEBASTIAN COLAVITA!

Today I had a chance to work with the incomparable Sebastian Colavita in Argentine Tango!  Several months ago I read about How Sebastian had impacted the studio the last time he was here, and saw the fantastic piece he choreographed for Antonio and Bonnie Emerson, an award winning competitive student at Daza Dance. I had been hoping he would come back to Atlanta and I am ecstatic to finally have had the opportunity to work with him!

We warmed up with Rumba and though I was feeling nervous at first Sebastian made me feel like family.  I didn’t realize how different Argentine Tango was from Ballroom Tango, and how dependent it is on improvisation and spontaneity.  We worked a lot on form and I learned how to be a better follower. He gave me advice that not only was good for Tango, but for Cha- Cha and Rumbas as well.

I felt so encouraged by the end of the class and so grateful that Sebastian was able to carve some time in his busy schedule to work with me. I felt like this was a preview of things to come!
