Classes this Week: This week in socially distancing classes, we start Monday night with
Tangosations brought to us by the Tango Society of MN and Eduardo Drake! "If you're like me, you've probably figured out that tango wasn't just a spice
of your life, but a gateway to it-- at least the juiciest part of it. That's why I've created this project called Tangosations. I love life, and I think you do too. I also believe the essence of tango is everywhere if we remember how to tune into it.
In this learning party, I'll share some things I've learned from my adventures in the world of "authentic relating" -- a practice and body of knowledge that has deeply enriched my love affair with tango, and indeed all humans.
we'll wiggle our plugs into humanity just a bit. We'll explore being together in ways that are off the beaten path of our habitual ways of interacting.
We'll play together as a large group and in pairs in a series of facilitated Connectorcise games. Like a tango dance, these games invite us into states of heightened awareness, connection, and creative potential, leaving players generally feeling more awake and alive. Empowered.
Outside of tango, I use the term transformational connection. In the tango world, some call these tango moments.
I'm excited to connect with you and others in our tango community. Your non-tango dancer friends will enjoy this too; so feel free to share this invite with them!"

Musings: A very wise person shared a great prediction with me recently. He said: "In two years, we will be back to a normal dance scene. People will be going out, socializing, dancing, in close embrace. They will be shaking hands, hugging, kissing upon greeting. They will be planning and traveling to dance vacations, going to group lessons, private lessons, looking for and having multiple practice partners. Our scene will be back to normal - as if this never happened" Yes, he is a very wise person and I believe he is right.
