SUNDAY CAFÉ

                        

TANGO CAFÉ (PAULA'S BIRTHDAY)

                       

NEW MILONGA STARTING

La Milonga Que Faltaba – in a joint venture between John Hoey and Nikos Kyriakidis, this Milonga will be on Friday 5^th October, in SHAFTESBURY BOWLING CLUB, 20a Annadale Avenue,  from 8pm to midnight. Price £5.
This is not a BATS event but another great opportunity to strut your stuff on the dance floor. The reason we go to classes and practice is to dance socially. So whether you are a beginner or have been dancing for some time, get yourself to the Shaftesbury on Oct 5.

There’s still some places on the free Tango Taster Classes on Friday/Saturday/Sunday if you have any friends or colleagues who want to try Tango – but we’re slightly over balanced on followers in the taster classes, so try to persuade some men.

DEIRDRE'S BIRTHDAY TANGO

MARCELO AND LUIZA PERFORMANCE

MONTHLY MILONGA

Saturday night we have our monthly Milonga in WINDSOR TENNIS CLUB, Windsor Avenue (press the buzzer if the gate is closed), from 9pm to 12+. Just£5 and will include nibbles and a performance from Marcello and Luiza.

SOME GUIDANCE FOR TANGO CLASSES

First, everyone, the world over, usually thinks progressing to a higher level of class makes them a better dancer – whereas it is usually better to master the basics first (walk before you try to run).
 Second, there’s no harm in also doing the level below “your” level – doing a second class doesn’t cost much more and will speed up your learning.
Finally, having said there’s no rules, here’s some “soft” guidelines (but you need to find your own realistic level).

Beginners – 7-8pm Perhaps 1-6 months of classes, although some will stay longer. It won’t be full of people in their first class. You are learning the basic eight, ochos, giros, etc.

Improvers – 8.15-9.15 Perhaps 6-18months of classes. You can do the basic eight, ochos, giro without even thinking about them, but more complex steps like ganchos and sacadas are harder.

 Intermediate – 9.30-10.30. 18 months+ of classes. Most steps are straight forward to you and you are looking for complex movements and concepts such as musicality.

MARCELLO AND LUIZA WORKSHOPS

Marcello and Luiza worshops Sunday April 15

We’ll try to bring Marcello and Luiza along to the Practica next Thursday, April 12, to The West, Falls Road, 8-10pm, £2, so there’s even more of a reason to come along and brush up after the Easter lull and meet the weekend’s teachers.

NEW TEACHER/NEW CLASS FORMAT

After a great 6 month spell with Monina, the Society continues its policy of bringing you different teachers to give you a fuller tango experience, so we’ll be bringing John Rownan to you for the April classes.  http://www.johnrownan.com/
