TANGO NEWS
Perth has a great low cost venue for dancers to practise and improve their skills. It is held every Sunday at the Tango Salon, hosted by Kiong and Kyoko with the support from Juan and the Tango Club. The practica is also a forum for the local teachers and experienced dancers to share their knowledge and skills in an informal and friendly environment.
A presenter is invited each week to make a one-hour special presentation at the practica on aspects of tango technique and/or introduce some new cool moves for the dancers to explore.
The presenters to date included Juan and Amanda, Geoff and Anne, Antonio and Leanne, and Kiong and Kyoko. The topics covered so far included rebotes, volcadas, connection, milonga and vals moves. The programs for the coming weeks are as follows:
