Please note that Milonga Amistosa is moving to Claremont Project (24-27 White Lion St, N1 9PD) from this Saturday onwards. The Tango Unlimited and Advanced classes are at the same time: 16.30 to 18.00 and 18.00 to 19.30, with the Milonga starting at 19.30. The Milonga will finish earlier, at 22.30, which means we can bring back our famous after-milonga hangouts at the pub! 🌟

City Academy: Partners in Time – Tango Del Corazon Winter Show

Tango is all about the connection with your partner and the connection you both have with the music. When it is fully improvised and danced in the moment, it is an immersive experience.

Dancing on stage comes with a different perspective though – it’s as much about the preparation and training as it is about the adrenaline rush and performing and inspiring an audience on the day. When you train on a 6 monthly cycle, it keeps your Tango technique and physical fitness in shape. It gives you a mental structure to continue working with your Tango and fitness. It teaches you how to work with a team. It teaches you about how you react when put under pressure. It gives you the time to analyse and break down your posture. It gives you the time to explore musicality in detail. This is what our group of students have done and we are back on stage at Saddler’s Wells on 8th December!

Please do come along and support us as we attempt to inspire a whole new bunch of people into Tango. There is a solid D’Arienzo song in the performance too.

London Tango : the story of Ian and Anne

London is diverse and naturally Tango in London is diverse too. I dance in most Central London Milongas most of the times and I have now done it consistently for almost 12 years but Tango in London is bigger than any of us have ever experienced or even likely to experience. Even for someone like me who dances a crazy amount, it is impossible to experience the full scale of Tango in London with all the classes, special workshops, Practicas, Milongas, Festivals, etc just in Central London let alone all the good stuff that happens in the suburbs and just outside London. But I wold like to share some positive stories that I know of and have experienced in London Tango over more than a decade now. So here is the first one… this is the Tango story of Ian and Anne, one of my most favourite people in London Tango. If I walk into a Milonga and see Ian and Anne there, which is practically most of the times, it definitely brightens me up an extra notch. One, there is the guaranteed joyful tanda with Anne and the other, I can always catch up on a bit of cricket with Ian. Unfortunately, most of you Tango people are from non commonwealth countries and usually have no idea of cricket, so people like Ian are like a treasure for me! I think I started dancing with Anne regularly about 7 years ago. Apart from the beautiful disassociation during her pivots, the first thing that stuck me about Anne was her knowledge of Tango music and her ability to pinpoint the orchestra of the Tanda we are dancing to. Talking to Ian and listening to Ian talk about dancing to the Vocalist or Troilo’s bandoneon it became clear that they are both obsessed with Tango music!

Their Tango journey:

They had their first Tango lesson in 2002 while living in the Cornish country side. And guess who their teachers were… it was none other than our own Corrientes duo Mina and Giraldo! Apparently, there was some sort of Tango Festival around that time and Mina and Giraldo had made a trip there and Ian and Anne got hooked up. After Mina and Giraldo returned back to London, Ian and Anne desperately tried to keep up by starting to buy loads of Tango CDs, watching videos, etc. (Side note: There was definitely a charm in collecting Tango music in CDs. Because of the limited nature of the collection, we tend to make a stronger connection with the Orchestras. These days of course we have Spotify, iTunes, YouTube, etc.)They then moved to Bristol, where they continued with their Tango and in 2011 decided to move to London, part of the reason being Tango. Since then they have been a regular fixture in our Milongas 2 to 3 times every week! They have been super nice to everyone and most importantly they are there in the Milongas week after week.

Favourite orchestras:

Anne: Fresedo (for the cheesy romantic music!)
Ian: Pedro Laurenz, Troilo

Favourite London Milongas:

The old Negracha, Etnia

Non Tango facts:

Ian was a lecturer in an Arts school, Did/does Painting, Still displays his work in Arts exhibitions in London and is also a Jazz musician.Anne worked in Education and Designed jewellery.

Highlight:

The beauty of their Tango journey is how Tango allowed them to reconnect with each other. They were/are active people all the time but their activities were separate from each other but since picking up Tango as a common hobby, they feel like they have connected with each other more!

Quote (from Ian):

“Don’t chase the music, let the music guide you”.

If you really care about London Tango, there is no bigger contribution that you can do than being there in our Milongas much like Ian and Anne. And when you see them next, say a hello and surprise them with facts from above.
