Tango Beginners' Course Level 1

Argentine tango is a beautiful dance and it has attracted the attention of most major cities in the world. Even here in little Malta we have a group of tango enthusiasts including Gordon (at present taking a tango boost in Argentina) and myself which will only be too happy to pass on our knowledge of this addictive dance. We are very pleased to see that a nice big group of people have actually inquired for this class.


HERE IS ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW:

Class level: Beginner's level 1

Teachers: Nathalie and Gordon

Place: Il-Forn Wine bar , Birgu

Dates: 25th Sep, 2nd Oct, 7th Oct, 30th Oct 2008

Time: 7.30pm sharp till 9pm. (After class, you are invited to practice and socialize with other tango dancers for another 2 hours)

Price: 25 euros per person for the 4 sessions (money collected from our classes,go towards a fund with which we are able to invite foreign teachers to spice up our dancing) Claudia collects the money.

Dress:
What you want, normally smart casual. Followers are advised to wear leather soled well supported shoes.


WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW:

If you are interested, please send us an e mail, if possible by the end of the week, stating your full name and mobile number in case we need to contact you urgently. Let us know, if you would like to take the class as a follower or a leader, so that we will try and match equal numbers of followers to leaders. In reality we are at the moment outnumbered by followers, so please do try to get a leader/s with you, and inform us about them (women can lead too). During class we change partners constantly, so everybody gets a chance to participate. If you need further info please contact Nathalie on tangomalta@gmail.com or 79287755.

Note: Maestro Eric Jurissen will be in Malta giving workshops between the 16th and 19th October 2008. This will be a great opportunity for you to continue polishing up what you have learnt in Beginners Level 1 Course.
