U of MN Tango Club "Milonga Caliente" featuring live music from "Hiawatha Tango Orchestra"!

Sat, Jan 17, 9PM-1AM. 2 sets of live music at 10:30 and 11:30.

University Baptist Church, 1219 University Avenue in Dinkytown (1 block from Loring Pasta Bar)

This will be a milonga you won't want to miss! HTO hasn't played together in our home town in a while, but we've been busy studying, practicing, arranging and composing tango music. (and even dancing a little!) We have a lot of new music for your tango pleasure: 3 peppy D'Arienzo tangos, 3 Troilo milongas, 3 dramatic Puliglese tangos and the world-premiere of 3 new vals by Bob.

The Hiawatha Tango Orchestra is a quintet (Bandoneon, Piano, 2 Violins, & Bass) devoted to playing traditional golden age tango for dancing. HTO is lead by bandoneonist Bob Barnes (of Mandragora Tango) and Dr. Jerrod Wendland (of Rogue Tango) on piano. HTO also has very special guest violinist Sara Pajunen (Tango Tahden, Abandonada) joining violinist Amy Tobin and bassist Blake Bonde as their string section.

There'll be candlelight, snacks, punch, and lots of great dancing! 

For this special live music event, we are suggesting a $20 donation, $10 for students. Pay less if you are just coming to listen.

The milonga is in the social hall of the University Baptist Church at 1219 University. Please use the University Avenue entrance. Look for our sign outside the church!

Parking is available in the church lot and at the
library next door. There is also a large U of M lot
at 13th Ave & 5th St (less than two blocks away!)

We hope to see you soon!!!

If you are looking to spice up your milonga  please come and join our Tuesday Intermediate level class at 8pm. Micheal and Andrea have come up with some nice basic patterns to get you warmed up. Still to come this month are turning the step, fun little rythmic adjustments, and some spicey "surprise" moves that are easy to learn and fun to execute. For those of you who are a little milonga-shy, we have a few students this month who are new to the step. We always cover basic timing and introductory concepts to get everyone in the class on the same level,

[TSOM-Announce] Oakwood school dance troop rehearsal: revised date

In case some of you out there were still interested, or silently said no because of the rehearsal date, THAT HAS ALL CHANGED!

We will meet at the home of Gretchen Larson at 7 p.m. on Tuesday the 20th of January to work through a few things for the event on the evening of January 22. Nothing big or complicated; we just want to make sure everyone is in sync. A potluck dinner is part of the fun on rehearsal date. 

We already have a half dozen or more participants. But it would be even better to have a couple more people to share their talents. It's a short commitment and you will help put a happy face on a bunch of kids and their parents.

Meet your candidates.  What do they say about themselves?

 

Terri Cox Davis:

My tango journey started in the spring of 2011.  It began when I watched Lois Donnay demonstrate and talk about tango at the Northeast Arts Crawl.  I attended my very first beginner lesson the next day at Lois' house and was – predictably – quite awful. But I stuck with it and soon loved it.  My recent trip to Buenos Aires has just reinforced that commitment to and love of the tango.  As a board member, I would bring to the table marketing, advertising, and project management skills that I utilized in my career in advertising and marketing.  If elected, I promise to do my best to help spread the joy of tango.

 

Yanhua Deng:

I am passionate about tango because the experience is always exciting and challenging. Tango is a never ending pursuit and learning process. As an avid tango dancer, I have been actively participating and supporting many events in the tango community since coming to Minneapolis. I am constantly expressing my passion for tango through dance, music, and photography. I am hoping by getting more involved in the TSOM board, I can share my experience and bring fresh perspectives to the community.

 

Sarah Sommers:

I am very aware of the impact that TSOM has had on developing our tango community. I first stumbled upon tango in the late 90's, before there were organized milongas, venues, workshops, and the significant community that we have now. I was aware of only a few milongas being held that year. One was a New Year's milonga, which I anticipated greatly and attended, dressed in my finest. Granted, still a novice, I didn't dance even once. Our community has grown not only in size and level of sophistication, but also in awareness. The pleasure that I now find within the tango community as a most significant aspect of my life, is undoubtedly due to the overwhelming generosity of spirit as well as the talent and passion of the dancers. I would like to be part of continuing to foster the excellence that TSOM has generated. And even help to further it to the next level. I feel very honored that members of the community have nominated me to become a contributor in this endeavor.

 

Avery Harrington:

There are two stories I like to tell people when I am asked how I got into tango, my story and my wife's story.

My story.

My wife wanted to take dance lessons. I told her, "you pick the dance and we will do it". She was asking around to get input on all of the different kinds of dance we could learn. One of her clients who is a former dance instructor told my wife "Whatever you do, do not start with tango. It is too difficult. You will take a few classes become frustrated and never take another class". I told my wife, "It is just a dance not rocket science. It looks like we are taking tango."

My wife's story.

She and some girlfriends ended up at the Loring Pasta bar one Sunday evening. There she witnessed a wonderful mix of ages and abilities, dancing to live music in a magical space.  She fell in love with the dance. Odds are some of you reading this now were there that night and helped seduce her.

Both stories are true. At this point both are irrelevant. It does not matter how we started. Now all that matters is… when is the next Milonga.

See you all there.

 

Fran Howley:

Oh my.....

I've been on the TSoM Board for the past year and feel ready to take on a specific assignment.   I am exceptionally time oriented and organized which are Secretarial Skills!  (Many, many years ago, I actually went to Katherine Gibbs Secretarial School for a year....yes, we wore white gloves to the school and learned short hand and typing using carbon paper!)   Be assured I have now updated my knowledge to include computers and the delete button!

 

Nicky Bowman:

In the fall of 2012, I signed up for an Argentine Tango class offered by U of M's dance department because one of the goals on my bucket list was to learn tango. The rest, as they say, is history. Today, I am an unrepentant tango addict. I love the complexity of tango and the richness of connection I find in the embrace. As a violinist, pianist, and classically trained singer, I also love that tango continually challenges me to be musically expressive. I'm committed to the ongoing growth of the Twin Cities tango community, and I see my involvement in TSoM as a means of supporting that growth.

And that is what makes tango the addicting dance we all crave.  Saturday morning at 10AM is the best value for beginning lessons.  Yes, I know it's cold out - that's why you need a good tango embrace tonight! Tuesday Party:  Tuesday at 9, after the lessons. I feel this is one of the reasons my students are so good - they learn in the lessons, then immediately try it on the floor (after a glass of wine, anyway!). Food, wine, dancing and great conversations. Private Lessons: Private lessons are essential for true growth in tango.  This individualized information helps you to get better fast - and more important, helps you to learn your problem areas and take care of them before they become too hard to fix. I have people who want to share lessons, if you want to save costs. Schedule now! Yes, you can still make arrangements to come to the Mobile Tango Festival. We will have attending some of the best, most dedicated tango dancers in the country. Prices are incredibly reasonable!  Call me if you want to share a room. mobilealwintertangofestival.com/ Tango Boutique! Clothes, shoes and accessories for the tango dancer.  Many items from Buenos Aires, with the color and style that you can't find here in Minnesota.  Come and shop before or after the lessons, during the parties or set up an appointment. Buenos Aires! My most frequently asked question: how was Buenos Aires this year?  We had more fun than you can imagine! Come join us!  It's early, but not too early to plan.  The tentative dates are from November 23 to December 15th, but you can pick the dates that work for you and still stay in the house with us.
