Gacetilla de Prensa 1905
El Show
Se trata de una experiencia inigualable que permitirá al espectador experimentar las dos facetas del tango actual: lo popular y lo virtuoso. 1905Tango, ofrece un grito de expresión donde la fusión artística late al compás de los corazones de los miles de hombres y mujeres que cada domingo, viven, ríen y lloran por la pasión inigualable del fútbol.La exelencia de los artistas y la trama original, marcan la diferencia. El show está conformado por tres parejas bailarines, un trío de música en vivo (bandoneon, violín y piano) y un dúo de guitarra y guitarrón a dos voces.
El espectáculo recorre un cuento narrado en tres partes sobre uno de los mas grandes bailarines de tango del la historia, El Cachafaz. Se suman algunas canciones de fútbol como El Sueño del Pibe y La Cumparsita a forma de relato de fútbol radial. Los bailarines realizan coreografías grupales e individuales y los músicos temas instrumentales; todo encerrado en un repertorio tan entretenido como original.
El aperitivo y el tour
Durante el show se tiene la posibilidad de disfrutar de un aperitivo y combinar esta actividad con las que cuenta el club como ser las visitas guiadas por el Museo Boquense y el estadio.Este es el primero de los eventos culturales que ofrecerá el restaurante y confitería, 1905, a fin de acercar al público local y extranjero dos íconos de la cultura popular porteña: la magia del estadio de fútbol mas importante del país y el tango en todas sus expresiones: canto, música y baile.

Kambras
Es un grupo de artistas y productores que tienen el objetivo de hacer que la creatividad se vuelva material. Cuentan con artistas invitados de diversas disciplinas creando producciones propias en géneros como tango shows, video-danza, espectáculos teatrales, performances y video animación. Kambras es tal vez una puerta que lleva a un mundo igual a este pero más vivo, con algunas cosas que desentonan con el sentido común, pero no incomodan.
El Director
Gonzalo Orihuela: Director teatral y coreógrafo. Comprende el baile en dos áreas, el escénico y el social; busca utilizar el tango como medio expresivo para hablar de otros temas.Dirigió “Resurrección Urbana” y “El Sonido de las Caricias”. Con “1905Tango” busca un show mas íntimo, que acerque a los artístas y al público, poniendo bajo la lupa detalles, que en los shows convencionales, suelen pasarse de alto.

Paul's back pain
- Get working (or find someone who does) on your Fascias If you feel your skin is sticked to your spine, massage it. If you have scars any where and the skin is all cramped together work on it till it gets soft (this can take weeks)
- I use "Taping" as soon as pain starts. I apply it my self, guided by a book, but in Europe you can find lot's of physiotherapist that know the technique. I buy mine here
- Ibuprofen is the typical drug doctors give you. I don't really know if this helps any one. If it does help you please give me your feed back. To me it just makes things worse.
At some point, when I have that unstoppable pain that makes me cry at night and makes me feel the loneliest person in the world, I've really hated this drug. I prefere to have something stronger, morfin based, that will allow me sleep for one day and then get up. Start moving very slowly and getting in to activity (doing stuff to fix my self) till the pain starts going away. Dangerous side, it's incredibly addictive, one week and your body is hooked to it. It can make some people feel very bad and your not allowed to drive. Doctors give it to you just if they are very sure you need them and you can handle them. Don't smoke, don't drink. - Stretching. Softly. Every now and then during all day. We don't want to much pain. You will realize there are two kinds of pain when you do this. One, the one that comes from the injury. Be gentle, but get over it. And one which comes from the contracture. We have to work on this last one. For every stretch you do think in back, front, left and right. Stretch left leg backwards then the right, and then both forward. My favorite exercise is to lie down in front of a doorframe. Lift up one leg against the wall and stretch it, and the other one remains on the floor stretched. In this way one leg is stretching against the wall and the other one is resting, stretched throughout the doorframe. If it herts a lot keep distance from the wall so that you don't have to list your leg so much.
Another exercise is to sit on the floor with legs stretched forward in a way that your ischions will be on the floor. Your back should be upwards perpendicular to the floor. Then move your left leg forward a bit, always keeping both stretched, then do the same with the right then again with the left and so on. You will start moving forward like a locomotive. Always keep your 90° position in relationship with the floor. Onces you've moved a couple of meters forwards start doing it backwards. Repeat 3 times in each direction.
After siting on a chair, when you stand up, decompress the lumbar area by making a small arch backwards with your back. In a way that you face will be almost in direction to the roof. - Yoga. This is not the same as just stretching. This is when you can really go for it! As soon as you are good enough to move your self out of the house and get in to some kind of transportation you are ready to start.
- Educate your everyday movement. Don't walk fast. Stand up slowly, find a way of doing it with no effort and don't lean over the table. Don't hold your head with your hands. When you sit, try to find your ischium bones and sit on them. At the orthopedics you can find inflated round cushions that are very goo for training the way we sit. A couple of minutes a day make a difference.
- Gyrokinesis. Gyrothonic, Pilates are good training for your back to avoid the problem to return.
- "Ozone Therapy" for Lumbar Disk Herniation. I've heard incredible good things about this. If there is anyone in town you does it you should try it immediately.

Encourage Ideas
Leyendo un e-book me encontré con esté párrafo que me gustó mucho para aplicar a los ensayos de la nueva obra que estamos creando con Kambras.
5. Encourage other people’s ideas. Never criticize.
If you think an idea isn’t that great, how can you build on it or spin off it to make it something better? That positive vibe will only encourage people to throw more ideas on the table. Don’t be “that guy” who criticizes everyone else’s and your own ideas.

Changing partners
I’ll ask them to change partners every two songs. My interruptions for making corrections will be only after the couple has danced 1 out of 2 pieces already. In this way each dancer will have the chance to try the observations or exercises with at least 2 partners.
- Encourages clearness of leading and following.
- Challenges and avoids bad habits to stick
- Changing partners encourages students to socialize.

The social aspects
Following the dance flow
When I teach beginners they have to walk following the square or rectangle shape of the dancing floor. It will be done in opposite direction to the clock. It’s just our way of fighting time in an attempt of making it go slower.(*)
I do my best to avoid allowing them adopt bad habits. Looking to the floor is not an option. Once we get used to it it’s very difficult to get rid of it. There are no answers to the problem written on the floor. We are training our sensibility. Learn to feel not to see.
Depending on the amount of students I will ask the group to make one or two lanes and not to overtake each other neither to slowdown the way for those who come behind them. I, as the teacher, will stand in the middle of the room surrounded by the dancing couples who move in these one or two lanes. The space left in the middle is my sector, the challenge for them is not to loose their own lanes and invade then mine, unless of course that asked to do so. When ever I correct somebody and I need to go in to details, to avoid disturbing others, I will bring the couple in to my sector. And ask them to go back to their lane once we have finished clearing the doubts.
Social aspect is important cause once students learn to deal with the social restrictions of the space it becomes much easier to dance. Why?
Because we don’t have to worry for the others any more. It happens automatically, it flows.

Reasons for stopping
Our teacher can tell us we should do something while dancing and we might learn it but the best way I find for learning is when I have two options:
- if I do it as told it works
- if I don’t it does not.
I want them to find quality of movement so I insist on starting and stoping. And I don’t want them to move by consequence but by decision. There are many good reasons why beginners should learn starting and stoping. I’ll write a new post specially about that any time from now.
In the very crowded Bs As milongas we learn starting stoping and direction changes as soon as we try to dance in the milonga. We have to, there is no other chance for a beginner. In many European milongas it’s not necessary because in most salons there is so much space that you can start walking in any direction at the first difficulty.
We have to build rules and exercises to teach it when students will not learn from the milonga.
To dance always in one lane in a harmonic relation with their fellow dancers
I like working with an exercise I call my best friends. I’ll try to go deeper in that one as soon as possible.
