Every artist needs to learn technique, every craftsman needs to learn the tricks of the trade. You can spend years trying to discover them on your own, or come to my classes and I'll clue you in. Hint: You can't see them in a video, or even watching the masters dance in person. Those Argentines are sneaky! Women who want to learn to lead, or lead better, are welcome. Thursday lessons - we go fast, but this is the cream. Come and try it! February is Milonga Month! Every February we concentrate on Milonga. Milonga is such an important dance - yet it remains as an afterthought in many classes. That is so wrong! It is so much fun, it is easier than tango so is great for beginners, and followers love it. Once you learn milonga, the connection, posture, walk and embrace transfer easily to vals and tango. Don't overlook milonga! Own it!  Private Lessons:  Every private lesson is worth at least 5 group lessons. You get the information that is just for you, so you make progress fast. Call me for package deals! Tuesday Party: Someone said to me this week "The Tuesday Party! I forgot how much fun that is! I'm coming!" You should too!. Food, wine, dancing, friends, conversation in a lovely, no pressure atmosphere. 9PM every Tuesday. Upcoming: I will be teaching a tango workshop in Duluth, MN on March 4th and 5th. We are delighted that Oscar Casas is returning in June!! Classes with Oscar Casas June 8 to June 13. Musings: We often talk about trust in tango - partners need to trust each other. What does that trust entail? To me, I want my partner to trust that I will give everything in this dance, and they will recognize and respect that. I will never hurt my partner. That means special care to keep both their bodies and their egos from harm. No squeezing, pressing on their arm or back. No fancy moves to show off to others rather than being totally with my partner. No big moves when the dance floor is too crowded to do them safely, or if I cannot lead or follow them well. No embarrassing them by stopping and teaching them on or close to the dancefloor. No refusing and rejecting them in a superior way or in order to teach them a lesson. Will you pledge to treat your partner with respect? Of course! Tango Boutique! Clothes, shoes and accessories for the dancer.  Clothes that fit, stay on, have color, flow beautifully, with real style.  And great prices! Shoes from $40 to $150, including some great values in preowned.  All clothes under $100. Come and shop during parties and get an unbiased opinion from seasoned tango dancers. :) Buenos Aires! Time to plan for 2017~ if you want to go on my tour! The next trip will be in November to December. Pick the dates that work for you and let me know so I can arrange housing. I'll need to know for sure, with a deposit, by the first of August. Limited space is available, so that I can give you the attention you deserve. We have so much fun!  follow on Twitter | friend on Facebook | forward to a friend  Copyright © 2017 Dance with Lois Donnay, All rights reserved.
