Pre-workshop: Tango Milonguero with Emile and Simge on the 4th Saturday of the month
Our monthly Milonguero Milonga is dedicated to the classic Milonguero style: an evening in close embrace, with clear dance flow, precise spatial orientation, and musical sensitivity – as required in well-attended milongas.
The Milonguero embrace, as well as the closed Salon embrace, are not only welcome but consciously shape the atmosphere of this evening.
5 wishes for the Milonguero Milonga:
1. Dance Milonguero style or try it. Close embrace is the way to go!
2. Be sensitive to space.
Still unsure? Then dance straight ahead in your lane. Spatially aware dancers can also turn and change lanes.
3. Pay attention to the music’s tempo and the ronda.
Fast music = dance smoothly. Slow pieces = don’t overtake. If the tempo is high during a fast rhythmic piece, but you sway in the same spot for half a minute to fully experience the melody, you will cause a traffic jam behind you and annoy people. Conversely, if you move too fast during a slow melodic piece, you will start to overtake people and thus switch from lane to lane. Your fellow dancers won’t like that either.
4. Be elastic, dance with “shock absorbers”. If you collide, your elastic body will absorb the impact.
5. Expand your repertoire. Direction-changing elements help with evasive maneuvers and smooth dancing.
