  • Third Saturday: Tango Milonga with Lesson 
Classes:  We are turning our attention to turns.  A new student said, after his first milonga "people don't seem to go anywhere!"  Yes, without a nice arsenal of turns, your dance will be stuck.  Especially useful in vals!
Thursday Advanced, it'll be lots of secadas - the "leggy things" that followers seem to enjoy so much.  They add energy to our turns!

Canyengue Workshop: 2:00PM to 4PM Saturday, Oct 25th People still ask me "what is Canyengue? Is it that line dance?"  If you've been dancing tango for any time and you still don't know, you should find out what else they dance in Buenos Aires milongas. It will enhance your knowledge of tango culture and history, as well as help you to understand the music better, hence understand tango better. And of course it is fun!  There are Canyengue dancers in the Twin Cities who would like partners to play with. ;)  We'll also try to cover Chacarera and Zamba, Essential if you are planning a trip to Buenos Aires. Don't miss out. Cost is $25

Tuesday Party & Milonga:   Nice, relaxed atmosphere, great for dancing and to chat with friends. 3142 1st Ave S. Every Tuesday at 9, after the lessons. 

Private Lessons: In order to learn tango, you need a mix of group and private lessons.  Private lessons with an experienced teacher are invaluable to addressing your specific needs. Call or email to schedule.

Upcoming:  Halloween milonga  on October 31st! Spend the scariest holiday of the year in the comforting arms of a tango embrace.  Start thinking about your costume now, because there are prizes.  Or just come as a tango dancer! St. Petersburg Restaurant & Vodka Bar, 3610 France Ave N, Robbinsdale, MN. Music starts at 7, but come early for dinner.  7-11PM $10

Winter Tango Encuentro!  Winter Tango festival in Mobile, Alabama the second weekend of January, 2015.  You'll need to get away by then, right?  Specials for booking now. This will be a very milonga intensive festival - lots of great, truly dedicated dancers from all over.
