Event Details:
💃🏼 Workshop by Valeriia Khelman: Tango in Your Socks — the joy of movement and the language of the body
📍 Location: Hello Tango HQ, 1072 Rákóczi út 20.
🗓️ Date & Time: June 18th, 6:30 PM (Milonga at 7:30 PM)
Are you new to tango and still haven’t found the courage to go to a milonga? Or maybe you’ve tried but felt unsure about floor navigation, tango vocabulary, or cabaceo skills?
About the 80 mins workshop:
We often think tango is about the steps. But first it is about the body: how it stands, how it breathes, how it moves on its own, before we learn any figure. In this 80-minute workshop Valeriia Khelman-Slizkaia from Kyiv, who spent her life on stage exploring the language of movement and connection in depth, offers a different way into tango.
What we will do together:
- warm up, stretch and relax the body so the movement becomes natural;
- work with the floor and the feet, so please bring socks, as we start and mostly work in socks;
- discover how to create energy inside the body and then move with it;
- work on the steps, the rebounds and the change of weight;
practice on our own and in couples too.
No previous experience needed, and no need for "good body awareness" either. That is exactly what we will build together. Bring your curiosity and a pair of socks. 🧦
Milonga Primera is the perfect place to start social dancing in a friendly, casual environment! Whether you’ve been taking lessons for several months or just started, this evening will help you build confidence in your dancing and your understanding of milonga etiquette.
We’ll kick off at 6:30 PM with an open-level workshop by Valeriia.
After the workshop, join us for Milonga Primera from 7:50 to 9:30 PM. Our DJ will play 2 songs tandas so you can dance with as many partners as possible in a relaxed, beginner-friendly atmosphere. We encourage everyone to come with an open mind, treat fellow dancers kindly, and focus on enjoying the music and movement - no complicated etiquette rules required!
