focusing on proper technique for advanced moves and musical
expression. Topics will include: release and expression of the free
leg, technique and adornos for leaders and followers, rotation in
advanced steps, improvisation, musicality, and much more. Partners not
necessary. Participants are invited to stay and help with the
introductory class at no charge.
AThere will also be an Introduction to Tango series for new dancers to

walk, you can dance tango. This series is designed to give you a good
start dancing tango that will provide a foundation of understanding

like to wear high heels that don't fall off.

From Ian JEnkins:
Tango School in Buenos Aires Wanted.
Can anyone who has recently visited Buenos Aires recommend a good
tango school there. I have a friend new to tango who wants to travel
there and take tango to a higher level. She is a single girl
travelling by herself. Does anyone have a recommendation for
accommodation and classes.
Someone has mentioned the Mariposita School. Has anyone been there.
Please email me at
