The objective of the Thematic Program Seminars is a deep developing of a certain element or choreographic idea. This central theme is studied in its all aspects. 

The Thematic Seminars have a specific program that includes everything we believe necessary to know really in depth the given central theme. That means that on one side, will be studied all the technical specific elements that belong to the central theme and its application to a principal sequence, and on the other side, the development of that central theme applied to the most usual combinations.

The developed Seminars untill now are:

• "Axis Inclination - Colgadas & Volcadas"    (Programmed for 2008)

• “Changes of turn direction"

• "Rhythm, Phrasing & Musicality"    (Programmed for 2008)

• "The Embrace & The Posture"

• "Sacadas" 

• "Differences between Tango, Vals & Milonga"

Normally we give a Thematic Seminar after a General one, in the same month, (the exception this year 2007 will be December) but these Seminars are not continuity of any previous one, therefore, it is not necessary to have attended a General one to be able to attend the next Thematic one.

Seminar of " Axis Inclination - Colgadas & Volcadas":

We consider the inclination of the follower’s axis, as a tool capable of bringing dynamism to the dance, that means that apart from bringing action and risk, it solves a number of traditionally static situations of the tango dance, providing more harmony and continuity to the movement. We will work in this seminar how to use this tool (the inclination of the follower’s axis) in all kind of steps and situations, analyzing posture, arms, hips, resistance of the Man (leader), inclination degrees of the woman (follower), etc, in order to print that new dynamics to the dance.

Seminar of “Changes of turn direction”:
We will work all kind of choreographic ideas,  but through the analysis of the changes of turn direction of the woman (follower) around the man (leader), which is something that we are continuously having  while dancing at the interior of the dance couple. 

So we can say that not only we treat the specific “changes of turn direction”, that applied to a principal sequence they result as very beautiful figures, but also how to apply them to all kind steps and situations, what provides a lot of new possibilities to the tango dance.

That analysis is really deep, and proposes a really  modern view of the tango dance technique. It is also important to say that this program particularly contains a lot of material to work with.

Seminar of "Rhythm Phrasing and Musicality":

The relation between the movement and the musical stimulation is (and will always be) one of the basic elements that build the dance, that’s why it results of extreme importance its exploration, analysis and development, for the solidity of the dance.

We will work on the three areas: rhythm, phrasing and musicality, using some times choreographic sequences and their multiple rhythmical variations, and some times certain premises tending to exercise specific aspects of the dance that vary in function of the emergent ambit of the music. On other side, the sequences and choreographic ideas used in this seminar, will correspond to the most usual combinations in tango and particularly those that frequently present rhythmical difficulties.  

Seminar of “The Embrace and The Posture”:
The Posture is theme of the most extended and unsolved discussions about how must be used in the dance, probably because it is the most representative element in the tango image, of the eternal man-woman relationship that exists within the tango. We firmly believe that the tango dance must be “functional”, that means that the quality in the dance doesn’t exist without the “functioning harmony”, and this harmony is the result of the correct leading and following, the correct upper body’s position, the relative use of the arms, the perception of the base axis, the use of the spaces, the control of the distances, etc, etc. It is clear that in all these elements, the Embrace and the Posture are 100 % involved. So we’ll work all these elements and others more, to know deeply the problems of the Embrace and the Posture, in order to improve fluidity and harmony in the dance, and therefore make it more pleasant. 
We’ll also take care about, as a second priority, shape, attitude and body lines. The tango dance must be beautiful to the sight, apart from fulfilling all the internal requirements of the couple dance.
