Leader Practice Stuff - Yannick & Enrosques




Liz Yannick Vanhove is at Clos le Castant.
August 8 · Cendrieux, France
For our #Tango peeps!🤓 Since Enrosques are the movement that we get questions about most (aside from embellishments), here's a quick video with some of my favourite exercises! 🤪
1) Practice dissociated pivots with both feet on the floor (don't lose balance! 🥳)
You can start with quarters, halfsies, threequarters then full 360
2) For the classic enrosque, practice bending your front leg and keeping your back leg straight
(🤯Your brain will not like this, it will try to trick you into bending both legs or keeping both straight.)
for the reverse enrosque, practice the opposite; standing leg straight & free leg bent.
3) 🤓Practice classic enrosque: Step with left, turn a dissociated enrosque to the left, switch weight, use left leg (legswing pivot) to do a lapiz to the left. Repeat everything to the right with the right leg.
4)🤩 Practice reverse enrosque, a bit easier for some because there is no switch involved, a bit harder for others because it requieres more balance on axis! Step back with right, front enrosque to the left, lapiz with the same leg. Repeat on the left to the right. (I ran out of IG-video time)
-🤔Remember, Enrosques are a consequence of the pivoting of the standing leg, the free leg clicks behind or in front in the end of the pivot. Don't go looking for the hooked position from the start! Keep the free foot on the floor as much as possible!
- 💪Do this every day for a minute or two to become a lean mean Enrosque machine!
