Description

Rumba is the most sensitive one among the Latin-dances. The calmer music allows us to put emotion and intention into every movement. In this workshop we will look at a short Rumba-Choreography, based on which you can expand your repertoire of steps and improve your Rumba-technique.

We will look at the following steps:

  1. Fan
  2. Hockey Stick
  3. Sliding Doors
  4. Three Alemana
  5. Sincopated cuban breaks
  6. Lunge


The more of these steps you know the better, the earlier we can start talking about technique.A basic knowledge of Rumba is assumed, but even without knowing the steps of the Choreography we will make sure you can follow along, as long as you are willing to learn some Rumba!

The instructors are super friendly and you never have to feel stupid for asking questions. It is a nice mixture of different dance styles and just a great start into dancing! Would definitely recommend:)

Der Kurs ermöglich dir zweierlei: Zum einen die Vermittlung von Grundwissen in populären Tanzarten, die sich auch an der einten oder anderen Party und Feiern gut zeigen lassen. Zu anderen aber eröffnet es dir aber auch ein Netzwerk in dem dieses Wissen vertieft werden kann, sei es durch weiterführende Kurse, der Möglichkeit ausserhalb der Kurse an sog. "Open Dancings" an der Uni teilzunehmen oder auch des Kursmaterials in Form von Videos der einzelnen Schritten oder Playlists, die dir die Leiter zur Verfügung stellten. Egal, ob du bloss einen kurzen Blick in die Welt des Tanzes werfen möchtest oder das Tanzen zu einem langfristigen Hobby machen möchtest - Ballroom 1 bietet dir dazu die Möglichkeit!

Goot continuation of the Ballroom Series with Quickstep and Vienese Waltz but consider room size when signing in (for us it was too small).

25. Nov. 2024, 14:21 Ballroom Crash Course with Michael Zischg, Lena Bartl, Daniel Sparber & Zhuolin Liu, Room: ETH Zentrum, Alumni-Pavillon
This is a great course for learning the basic steps of four dances. The teachers are friendly and open, and explain the steps well. The course is well adapted for complete beginners, and a good refresher if you already know the dances a little. Even though it is 4 hours long, it is not very tiring as the course is distributed throughout the day.

Der Crashkurs war sehr hilfreich, um uns in nur einem einzigen Tag so gut wie möglich vorzubereiten. Ich war verblüfft, wie viel wir an diesem einzigen Tag lernen konnten.
