La Chispa Tango Práctica - Clifford Studio w Free Parking!

Chispas, a different location for this and next Sunday afternoon's prácticas! Only 2 minutes biking from our regular location and with free parking (on Isaac Gogelweg) at 4 minutes walking. Is in the Huiskamer space, inside to the right. 🔥Free entrance for you (and you only) if you bring someone with you who has never been to La Chispa before! La Chispa Tango Práctica: 📍A práctica, not a milonga. No cortinas. 📍Less advanced dancers practicing with more advanced dancers - like in Buenos Aires in the Golden Age of tango. Because two beginners practicing together usually means doubling mistakes and perpetuating bad habits. This ‘knowledge transfer’ also allows the more accomplished dancers to test and transfer their understanding and skills. Teaching is learning twice. 📍Be careful giving feedback, be considerate. 📍Practice with more than one person as La Chispa is community-focused, though of course this does not mean you need to practice with everyone! Change around a bit, with whomever you feel comfortable practicing. 📍Use mirada/cabeceo or be more direct but respect boundaries. ‘PRÁCTICA’-LITIES: 💰Symbolic entrance fee €5 - in CASH! Free entrance for you (and you only) if you bring someone with you who has never been to La Chispa before! 🍷BYOD: Bring Your Own Drinks – and snacks! 🏫LOCATION: Cliffordstraat 38, 1051 GV, Amsterdam 🚇BY PUBLIC TRANSPORT: From Central Station bus 21, stop Van der Hoopstraat. Or rent an OV-fiets and pedal westwards for 9 minutes. 🚗 BY CAR: Sunday free parking on Isaac Gogelweg, at 4 minutes walking. ✨What is La Chispa? La Chispa is a social tango práctica inspired by the Golden Age tradition - where the more accomplished are helping the less accomplished dancers - just as it was back then in the prácticas of Buenos Aires. Today, a práctica can be the bridge between a formal lesson or workshop and a milonga yet it can also be the lesson. No rigid structures, just a space for exploration, learning, and socializing. Independent, no lessons (though we do small themes), no teachers (apart from occasional visiting teachers) but! other people to help you improve. Come alone or together, practice what you've been taught lately (or let us give you a challenge), explore, learn, meet, make it happen together. Abrazo, André, Asta, Becky, Iulia, Sabrina, Willem
