Contact: Emiliano Fernandez :Professional Argentine Tango Teacher emiliano.tango@yahoo.com Tel: 072 980 5747 Friday 3 October Let’s make Friday night a Tango night. Beginning the first Friday in October and running through to the end of November, the Tango Maestros of Johannesburg and Alchemy Health and Fitness Centre, invite you to join us for a series of classes for all levels! …and then: ‘Practica’ the night away. A ‘Practica’ is a practice session where dancers come together to socialise, practise their new moves, and meet other Tango dancers. With this venture, we (the teachers) hope to grow and unite the community… but we can’t do it alone. We need the support of you – our community. So, help us make Friday night a Tango night in Johannesburg! … and bring your friends along. We will have them dancing a tango in ‘no-time’. Dancers who take classes with the Maestros will automatically gain entry to the Practica after the class. For those who just want to ‘practica’, the entry will be R30 person, and will start after the classes - at 9pm. Emiliano will be taking Beginners through an 8 week course - guiding them to the fundamentals of leading and following from the heart/chest. (for more details see his flyer) Emiliano: “My goal is to transfer the passion and respect for classic tango. In the end of the 8 lessons my students must be able to circulate in the dance floor environment without crashing into other couples, following the music and doing basic structures and combinations in classic style.” Tango-Tensity (Bert and Lerato) will be taking intermediate students through an 8 week course – focusing on the communication between the partners. We explore what it is we are communicating; how we communicate; and the skills we use to communicate effectively. Mastery of the art of communication within our Tango, is an essential milestone on any Tango dancer’s path. (for more details see their flyer) Sonia and Ralph – Primo Tango will come together for the first time - after a decade apart - to conduct 4 classes at Alchemy – aimed at the more advanced Tango dancers, who want to expand and improve on the structures and patterns they know. This class will be the re-uniting of old friends; and the exploring of new Tango moments. (for more details see their flyer) Alchemy is a Martial Arts and Fitness centre that is opening its studios - and huge hall - to the Tango community, so that we can make Friday night a Tango night in Jozi. (address: Alchemy Health and Fitness Centre, cnr Lewisham and Beyers Naude Drive, Blackheath; near Cresta shopping centre) All classes will run from 8pm to 9 pm on Friday nights – beginning the 3rd of October - followed by a ‘Practica’ till late. For more details and prices of lessons and courses, please see the teachers’ flyers. (Please note: Alchemy is a martial arts centre and does not have a bar facility. You are invited to bring your own snacks and refreshments to enjoy at the Practica. There is a pizza restaurant and a steak house around the corner from Alchemy - for those who want to have a meal before or during the Practica.) See you all on the dance floor soon!
