About this Event
Sunday afternoon. Práctica del tango Argentino en La Chispa.
We are going for a walk.
=>Bring something to drink and eat, to share!
🔥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. No cortinas.
📍Less advanced dancers practicing with more advanced dancers. This ‘knowledge transfer’ also allows the more accomplished dancers to test and transfer their understanding and skills. Teaching is learning twice.
📍Be careful and considerate in giving feedback.
📍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! Just change around a bit, with whomever you feel comfortable practicing.
📍Use mirada/cabeceo or be more direct but respect boundaries.

✨What is La Chispa?
La Chispa is a social tango práctica inspired by the Golden Age tradition. Dancers of all levels are encouraged to learn from each other, with the more accomplished dancers helping the less accomplished - just as it was back then in the prácticas of Buenos Aires. No rigid structures, just a space for exploration, learning, and community.
