We won\’t be hosting the All-Night Milonga this month, but there\’s still plenty of dancing to be done at the Night of the Living DJs organized and hosted by Jack Wolf! I\’ll be DJ\’ing a mix of classic and modern Argentine Tango, milonga, vals and latin from 9-10:30pm on the downstairs of Triangle Dance Studio.

The special weekend with Fabian and Carolina happens in less than two weeks!

Don\’t miss this opportunity to study with masters of Argentine Tango. Fabian Salas is one of the individuals most responsible for bringing about a renaissance in Argentine Tango, changing how people dance, study, teach and understand the Tango.

The weekend of May 14-16 includes the following events:

• Fri, May 14: Tango Foundations and an informal social dance at Triangle Dance Studio.
• Sat, May 15: A day of Tango workshops followed by a practica and a special night of performances, Tango and Latin Dancing at Montas Lounge.
• Sun, May 15: More enlightening and challenging instruction by Fabian and Carolina!

The week of May 3 has two new intermediate series starting.

Monday nights will focus on Single Axis Turns and Colgadas. These are techniques in which the leader will step around the axis of the follower and/or invite the follower off-axis away from the leader while counterbalancing her weight.

Wednesday nights will focus on Calesitas and Volcadas in which the follower is invited off-axis towards the leader.

If you\’re looking for a Foundations series to join, it\’s not too late to join the Friday Foundations Series at Ninth Street Dance. The next Thursday night Foundations series at Montas Lounge starts on May 13th.
