About this Event
The best tango's, played by the best DJ's in the wonderful ambiance of De Danswerkplaats in Amersfoort. That's Milonga La Roca. The place to go to for every really die-hard dancer. Every 3rd saturday of the month. Easy to reach by train and car (free parking), a good restaurant as neighbor, vibrant atmosphere next to the old town. The cumparsita is planned at 03.00 but if lots of dancers stay, you can keep on dancing until max 04.00. The music stops earlier if less than 15 people are left.
Entrance 8 euro.
Yerpun was the first DJ for the first regular La Roca in June 2014! So, 5 years later it's time to give him a warm, La Roca style, welcome back here at the DJ desk. I call him world traveller because he's a traveller in tango now for many years. Let's see what he brings from all his trips to caress our tango hearts.
And.... you can join in at a workshop by Yerpun before La Roca. Theme: "Scan your tango". All info here: https://www.facebook.com/events/2290473144323393/
On sunday you can enjoy a lovely, relaxed sunday afternoon milonga called La Piedrita from 14.00 until 18.00 hour. So book a room and stay for the night (since public transport is terrible at night anyway from Amersfoort). You can book a cheap, clean room with breakfast for 19 euro here: https://expeditie.antenna.nl/frames.html
