  • Types of Dance Styles
    Types of Dance Styles International Standard Ballroom Dances Ballroom Dance: Ballroom dancing is one of the most entertaining and elite styles of dancing. In the earlier days, ballroom dancewas only for the privileged class of people, the socialites if you must. This style of dancing with a partner, originated in Germany, but is now a popular act followed in varied dance styles. Today, the popularity of ballroom dance is evident, given the innumerable shows and competitions worldwide that revere dance, in all its form. This dance includes many other styles sub-categorized under this. There are many dance techniques that have been developed especially in America. The International Standard recognizes around 10 styles that belong to the category of ballroom dancing, whereas the American style has few forms that are different from those included under the International Standard. Tango: It definitely does take two to tango and this dance also belongs to the American Style category. Like all ballroom dancers, the male has to lead the female partner. The choreography of this dance is what sets it apart from other styles, varying between the International Standard, and that which is American. Waltz: The waltz is danced to melodic, slow music and is an equally beautiful dance form. The waltz is a graceful form of dance, that requires fluidity and delicate movement. When danced by the International Standard norms, this dance is performed more closely towards each other as compared to the American Style. Foxtrot: Foxtrot, as a dance style, gives a dancer flexibility to combine slow and fast dance steps together.

  • The Dance Series from Ortofon Is Now Complete – MC Tango Joins MC Samba & MC Salsa for Almost Sixty Years, Ortofon Has
    March, 2007 The dance series from Ortofon is now complete – MC Tango joins MC Samba & MC Salsa For almost sixty years, Ortofon has been at the forefront of music reproduction from analogue records. Throughout the years Ortofon have developed many new and creative designs for the enjoyment of music lovers and audio enthusiasts all over the world. WHY AN ORTOFON MOVING COIL CARTIDGE? Many have asked the question: Why is the sound of a moving coil cartridge so superior to that of a traditional magnetic: The answer in one word is linearity. The patented Ortofon low-impedance, low-output design is inherently linear over the entire audible range. This coupled with unequalled tracking ability and unique diamond profiles combines to deliver a sound previously deemed unattainable. The MC Tango, MC Samba and MC Salsa is a direct result of our endeavours. MC Tango has an elliptical diamond which is cut and polished to Ortofon’s standards, and the output is 0.5 mV. The MC Tango is our MC entry level cartridge with a very high cost/performance ratio. MC Samba and MC Salsa have a tiny, nude Elliptical or Fine Line diamond, mounted on a very light and rigid cantilever. This results in low equivalent stylus tip mass and cantilever compliance on 14 and 15 µm/mN, which means that MC Samba and MC Salsa will give excellent results with virtually any tone arm. The armature has been designed as a tiny lightweight cross, and the coils are mounted at exactly 90 degree to each other (just like the walls of the record groove), which is improving the channel separation.

Toe-heel steps, rolling down smoothly. • Forward – Step first with LEFT foot. Then side-together (RIGHT – LEFT). • Backward – Step first with RIGHT, then side-together (LEFT – RIGHT). • Basic box – Put “Forward” step together with “Backward” for a box step! • IF YOU USE A PARTNER- it is easy!

In addition to the side-to-side hip motion, allow them to travel forward and backward as you step. (Hip moves forward on the same side as the foot that is stepping.) Samba: “Quick-quick, slow” Remember – this is a Latin dance. If you feel you can, step smoothly toe-heel. • Side-together-back*– – Step side-together (LEFT -RIGHT), then step backward LEFT.

  • New York University in Buenos Aires Class Code: V95.9751002 / K.2094001002 the Multiple Faces of Tango: a Cultural Critique of Identity (English Section)
    New York University in Buenos Aires Class Code: V95.9751002 / K.2094001002 The multiple faces of tango: a cultural critique of identity (English Section) Professor: Edgardo Dieleke August/December, 2010 Office hours: To be confirmed Mon and Thurs 3:30pm‐ 5pm Email: [email protected] Classroom: TBA Course Description When tango was born in Buenos Aires, in the second half of the XIX century, Argentina was going through major changes. With the arrival of millions of immigrants, the shape of the city and its society suffered an intense process of modernization. Tango, a product from the bordello considered a threat to national identity, came to be a global success in only twenty years. Acclaimed in Paris and New York, despite its origins, tango became a symbol for Argentina, in a process of negotiations and the control of sexuality and gender and class relations. In this sense, tango reveals itself to be a cultural product that condenses ‐beyond the richness of the music‐ many of the key debates regarding the relationships between culture and society. This course proposes, through the reading of tango lyrics, films and novels, a critical analysis of theoretical problems such as national identity, gender studies and the consumption of culture in a global era. The course will be divided in three parts a) The origins of tango and national identity b) Gender relations: from the forbidden brothels to the movies c) After‐tango: contemporary uses of tango. The course is organized in a format that combines lectures with a seminar‐style class, encouraging class discussions as well as different sights to the city, connected to tango.

  • Samba Footwork Manual
    Samba ! Brief History Samba is a dance and musical genre originating in Brazil, with roots from Africa via the West African slave trade and African religious traditions, particularly Angola and the Congo. Introduced in 1917, the Samba wasn't adopted by Brazil as a ballroom dance until 1930. In Brazil, Samba is mostly danced solo, and remains especially popular during celebrations of the Brazilian Carnival in Rio de Janeiro. The festive mood of the dance is responsible for its continued popularity. Samba is considered to be one of the most popular Brazilian cultural expressions, being is an icon of Brazilian national identity. Samba National Day is celebrated on December 2 every year! Samba has a very specific rhythm, highlighted by characteristic Brazilian musical instruments. To achieve the true character of the Samba, a dancer must give it a happy, flirtatious and exuberant interpretation. Characteristics and Technique Tempo: 80-125 beats per minute Rhythm: 1a2, 3a4 Time signature: 2/4 Principal characteristics of the Samba are the rapid steps taken on a quarter of a beat and the pronounced rocking motion and sway of the dance. The basic footwork of the Samba includes fast, three-step weight changes with a slight knee lift, led with alternating feet. The basic rhythm is ‘quick, quick, slow’. The major action of Samba, the ‘Samba Bounce Action’ gives the dance its unique look and feel. It is a gentle, rhythmic action felt through the knees and ankles. This action should appear effortless and carefree and should never be exaggerated. The ‘Samba Bounce Action’ is quite difficult to master, but really adds to the overall character of the Samba.

  • The Samba Experience
    Sarfati, Aaron MIT 21M030 – Ruckert December 7, 2006 The Samba Experience In examining and researching a foreign culture, there are two ways one may go about conducting the research: 1) reading and studying printed or recorded materials, or 2) living within the culture and experiencing it firsthand. But, sometimes the best research is a combination of the two, drawing from the theory of what should be and then comparing to what actually is practiced. The analysis of the similarities and the differences can sometimes be quite interesting. With this balanced method of research, I looked at Samba through a theoretical lens, analyzing its origins, studying the culture behind it, and examining its current history. Then, I attended a Samba concert in Cambridge, MA to see this style of music from the other lens – in practice. The goal of this experience was to understand firsthand what the music was, who the performers were, how the audience interacted, and what was the role of community in the practice and development of the music. The concert I attended with my wife was officially called “Halloween Halloween – Brazilian Music Festival: Samba Tremeterra” and featured the Samba Tremeterra group along with Ana Borges, the lead singer. The event was on Sunday, October 29, 2006 right before Halloween. It was held at the Middle East Downstairs club, which featured a large dance floor, a semi-large playing stage, two bars along the sides, and some scant seating. It was scheduled to start at 8:00 PM and go until around midnight. The first thing we noticed when we arrived was that the music had already started.

The purity, the feelings it transmits, and the originality of its expression have made it known worldwide and it has been declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage by the UNESCO. This declaration, combined with the Spain’s tourist boom in the last years, has transformed this exclusive art into an important tourist industry with all the entailing perils for its survival. By means of the Lean Canvas model, combined with a survey of a panel of flamenco experts (especially artists), this study analyzed the fundamental factors that are key to developing a tourism product that, while respectful of its essence, offers tourists a genuine and quality product. Keywords: Flamenco art; Cultural tourism; flamenco tourism; lean canvas; lean startup JEL Classification: A12; D19; O01; R10 1. Introduction The public interest in art, history, and culture in general has led the tourism industry to recognize the potential market niche of cultural tourism.
