If you don’t cha-cha over to Viva tonight to check out his lesson on sacadas.

That’s tonight at 9:15 pm.  Join us at the Suzanne Patterson Center for a great lesson, good food, good fun.

You can’t say no to a face like that, can you?

You’ll be a displaced person

But in a good way if ChuLo has anything to say about it. Marcelo Manfredi, but you can call him ChuLo, returns to Viva Tango this week with a lesson in sacadas (Spanish for displacement.)

ChuLo is gong to show us how to use ochos to maximize the dynamic in our dance and he’s going to unravel the mystery of those sacadas. That’s this Thursday at 9:15 pm.

We couldn’t help but notice that last week when Angeles started playing the Guardia Vieja, several of you who were on your way home came back and started dancing again. We liked that! So if you want to keep dancing, we’ll keep on playing music. There. Take that. And while you’re at it, if you’d like to bring a bottle of wine to share, please do.

You’ll rate those 8’s as 10’s

If you come to take our lesson with Angeles Chanaha tonight. Angeles will be focusing on the quality of movement in ochos and pivots. and how to create enough time to add embellishments and stylize your shoulders, torso and legs. Tangoing well is one thing. Looking good while you’re doing it is even better.

Join us at  9:15 tonight at the  Suzanne Patterson Center for an evening of good dancing, good food, good friends. Admission $12, $5 for students.

Weren’t invited to Mardi Gras?

That’s OK. We’re inviting you to Jeudi Gras with the incomparable Angeles Chanaha, fresh from her engagement in Taipei.

This week  Angeles and Chulo  start a three week series of lessons about the quality of movement in ochos, walks, and sacadas. Angeles is up first, this Thursday at 9:15 pm  (please note later start time for the next two months.) The subject will be ochos and pivots and how to create enough time to add embellishments and stylize your shoulders, torso and legs. You’re going to need this whether one of those Krewes asks you to lead their parade next year or not.

Come dance with Viva at SPC. We might just have some surprises for you. Maybe beads or doubloons, even coconuts. You never know. Masks are optional.
