About this Event

Chispas, Ángela Meléndez is back in town and will be back at La Chispa. Last time she brought down the house with almost 30 people coming for her - and us also, I guess. This time with La Meléndez, it is from: 📍14:45-15:30 (€5) Workshop Improvisation i.e. “variations on basic steps” – this is about using something everyone has and offering different possibilities of resolution to make for interesting improvisations (for fun, because of space, because of the music). 📍15:30-17:45 (€5) Guided Práctica - on the workshop material, anything else tango, or you come and do your own foot magic. => There will be a donativo, entirely voluntary, because offering this much value for such a sympathetic price of course is too much generosity on our behalf. But you decide. => Ángela is available for private workshops. Send her, me, or Becky a message if you are interested. 🍷🥑Bring your own drinks and snacks. 🔥Introduce a new-to-us tanguera/o ➔ YOU get in free! 🔥🔥Introduce a tango first-timer ➔ BOTH of you get in free! La Chispa Tango Práctica: 📍The missing link between classes and milongas. 📍Learn from dancers ahead of you.
