To boleos, ganchos and who knows – all from a simple back ocho. Will you succeed? Yes, you will indeed. (98¾% guaranteed.)
That’s because we’ve got the musical (and not at all Seussical) Vittoria and
Guillermo to teach tonight. Come see for yourself.
Join us tonight at 8 at the Suzanne Patterson Center. Lesson from 8 to 9, practica from 9 to 11:45. Admission $12 or $5 for students with ID.

Otherwise those pictures are always going to be blurry. So here’s what we want you to do; Take three tango steps, pause for the photo op. Three tango steps, pauuuuuse for the photo op. You know how important pauses are in tango. Now you know the reason for it.

Deserves another, of course. Vittoria and Guillermo have just that in mind for tonight’s lesson – how to go from an apparently simple ocho into a molinete (or giro.) This will turn your head and hopefully your feet, too
That’s tonight from 8 o’clock until 11:45 at the Suzanne Patterson Center.
Admission is $12 or $5 for students with ID. It includes the lesson, the practica and our tasty snacks.
It’s your turn.

That’s the subject at hand this week – how to segue from ochos to molinetes. And we have our two favorite tango masters, Vittoria and Guillermo, to teach it.
Our not-so-hot photographer was at it again last Thursday. If you like Seurat, you’ll love these:

Until you see what Kelly Ray has to say about suspensions. He was just warming up to the subject during his last lesson when we ran out of time. So he left us in (groan) suspense, promising more this week.
You won’t want to miss this. That’s 8 o’clock tonight at the Suzanne Patterson Center, where the air conditioning is quite good. Admission $12 or $5 for students with ID.

We just can’t wait to see what Kelly Ray has to say about suspensions this Thursday at SPC.
Many thanks to Maurizio Najt for a fabulous performance at our hotter than Hades milonga Saturday night. Some pictures of the milonga and a few from last week here:

And you will be too if you join us at SPC at 8 tonight to see Lesley Mitchell demonstrate how to get the quality of your tango movements just right so you can move easily, confidently, smoothly, and embellish to your heart’s content.
Don’t forget we’ve got our Milonga Brava on Saturday, a milonga with all the embellishments – live music by Maurizio Najt, great food by Nelly, lovely wine (if you choose to bring it), good dancers, nice people. You can count on that because we’d never embellish the truth.

Of a terrific series of lessons on technique by Lesley Mitchell and Kelly Ray. It’s lovely to know how to tango, but better still to get your movements exactly right, lending grace and elegance to your dance. If you’d like your tango to be comme il faut, join us at SPC Thursday at 8 for Lesley’s next class.
That takes care of the middle of the week, but we’re not done with you yet. We want to see you on the weekend too. Our Milonga Brava is this Saturday, June 30 at All Saints Church. It features the very accomplished composer, teacher and pianist Maurizio Najt.
If you want to be right in the middle of things this weekend, you’ve simply got to come!

In several ways:
First – We’re bringing Kelly Ray to you tonight at 8. He’ll be teaching leaders’ technique, focusing on the quality of movement. That’s a cool teacher with a cool subject.
Second – We’ve got ice cream and other cool offerings in, you know, the other sense of cool.
Third – We’re having a cool milonga next Saturday, June 30 with live music by the very cool, very exciting Maurizio Najt on keyboard.
There. We’re doing our bit for the heat wave. If you’d like to be cool too, we suggest you read our Tango Etiquette page and join us tonight at SPC.
Are we cool now?

No, we haven’t become the Ministry of Silly Walks. We’ve become the School of Beautiful Tango Movement. To further that end, we’ve got Kelly Ray, Philadelphia’s premier tanguero, to teach beautiful leading. That’s Thursday at 8 at the Suzanne Patterson Center. Admission $12 or $5 for students with ID.
