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.

Tango’s funny, or it’s sad. Or it’s quiet, or it’s mad. It’s a good thing, or it’s bad, but beautiful…
That’s what we’re working on this week under Lesley Mitchell‘s guidance -Beautiful walks, beautiful following, beautiful embellishments. Improve the quality of your movement and beauty will follow you everywhere. And what we need most of all to appreciate the beauty is men. Yes, there will be something in it for you too. So come one and all, leaders and followers, to Viva at SPC tonight, Thursday at 8.
Princeton University is offering a 6 week series of lessons, open to the public, at the Wilson Dance Studio starting at 7pm on Monday, June 18. See the Princeton Tango Club website for more information.
We’ve got one coming up – June 30th at All Saints with the fabulous live music of Maurizio Najt. It will be, in a word, beautiful.

Not to worry. We’ve got the solution. Lesley Mitchell and Kelly Ray will teach a series of lessons on leaders’ and followers’ technique, starting this week.
It’s all about how you make your basic movements in tango. If Lesley and Kelly have their way with you, you’ll be making them correctly, gracefully, with style and finesse.
Come see for yourself, this Thursday at 8 at SPC. Admission $12 or $5 for students with ID. And mark your calendars now for our next milonga:

Oh, you didn’t fall for that old chestnut, did you? Well the answer, of course, is practice, practice, practice!
That’s what we’ll be doing this Thursday at 8 at the Suzanne Patterson Center – a practica only, with no lesson. We’ve got a milonga coming up on June 30th and we want you all to be dancing like finalists on Dancing With The Stars. As you can see from this week’s pictures, some of you are there already.
