This class is focused on Vals, but these steps also work very well with rhythmic tango music.
In this class, we focus on the leaders switching back and forth between parallel and cross system while leading the followers to perform back ochos. This step works well in both vals (tango waltz) and rhythmic tangos.
This class will help us develop a higher understanding of Ochos such as Parallel Ochos for both leaders and followers and adding musicality to our Ochos.

In this class, we show a figure that begins by going to the close side of the embrace and then used two dynamic pivots with back ochos to return to the line of dance. We demonstrate the step in both open and close embrace.
