Back Cross Variations in Tango: Turns & Double Crosses #dance #tutorial

Back crosses are a playful and versatile element in tango. In this video, we explore different ways to integrate them naturally into your dance. We begin by using back crosses as a base to create a turn around the follower. From there, we add a second back cross to build a chain of back crosses, developing continuity and flow. To finish, we bring everything into a milonga-friendly sequence, combining the double back cross with a giro milonguero and parada. This material is ideal for intermediate dancers who want to expand their vocabulary while keeping the dance musical, clear, and comfortable. #tango #dance #tutorial #cross #backcross More about Back Crosses: Ocho milonguero - Back Crosses (2025):    • Ocho milonguero: Get started with back cro...   Giro milonguero (2025):    • Giro Milonguero: Circularity through Cross...   Back Crosses with Medio Giro & Americana (2025):    • Remix: Giro & Parada from Back Cross | Opt...   Ochos vs. Crosses (2024):    • Back Ochos vs. Crosses in Close Embrace | ...   Intro to Back Crosses (2023):    • Intro to Back Crosses | 3 Options to get s...   More Back Crosses (2024):    • Back Crosses II: Easy Sequences to Spice U...   More about Close Embrace: Intro to Close Embrace:    • Dancing in Close Embrace | Useful Exercise...   Turning an Ocho into a Cross:    • Dancing in Close Embrace: Turning an Ocho ...   Turning a Rulo into a Cross:    • Nice Sequence in Close Embrace: Turning a ...   Backward Ochos and Crosses in Close Embrace:    • Back Ochos vs. Crosses in Close Embrace | ...   Magic Hands:    • Magic Hands | Connection Exercise for Tang...   More Intermediate Topics: Intro to the Giro:    • Introduction to Giro | Structure, Techniqu...   Giro variations:    • Giro Variations | Different Dynamics Throu...   Giro with Rebote and Sacada:    • Giro in Close Embrace with Rebote & Sacada...   Salida del Cuarenta:    • Salida del Cuarenta (40) | Structure, Vari...   Media Luna variations:    • Media Luna Variations | Dynamic Sequence w...   Join our regular classes in Vienna @ateliersol , Maria-Lassnig-Straße 33. http://www.tangoinsideout.com/kurse/ Dancers: Iris Rogozhyna & Helmut Höllriegl https://www.ateliersol.at/iris https://www.ateliersol.at/helmut Music: Intro to Libertango by Pablo Schiaffino, Duo Ranas @duoranas5394, Music for the outro: Recuerdo by Duo Ranas Location: Atelier SOL https://www.ateliersol.at/ 0:00 Demo on Music (short) 0:26 Intro & Presentation of the Sequences 1:29 Sequence 1: Creating a Turn around the Follower with Back Crosses 3:29 Sequence 2: Double Back Crosses 5:17 Structure for the Milonga: Double Back Cross + Giro Milonguero + Parada 7:00 Details: Quality of Movement, Cocreating the Dance 8:35 Outro 8:43 Demo on Music (long)
