SATURDAY PRIVATES - THIS WEEK ONLY

I am unexpectedly in town this Saturday day so if any one wants a private lesson I have a couple of spaces available. (For those of you who don't know - I usually only do privates through the week!)

Call me on 027 238 0568, 9295811 (yes that is a Nelson number)  or email me annemaree.therkleson@gmail.com if you are keen.

Thanks and Happy Arts Festival

SUNDAY 16 OCTOBER - MILONGUITA

To celebrate the onset of Spring, October birthdays and just to have some fun,  I thought it would be timely to have a milongita (yes that does mean little milonga!)  The details are to follow and I think this could be a great time to invite any of your friends who have shown an interest in tango, to come and watch and have a beer/ vino with us and soak up the view and the dancing.

Here's the plan for the day:

SUNDAY 16 OCTOBER
Sunday Technique Class as usual at St John's in Hardy St but at the earlier time of 4pm - 5.30pm, $15

5.30 pm we all head to the Boathouse for BYO Fish & Chips/beer/vino and a dance till 7.30pm
I will DJ the evening till 7.30.

NB no charge (so invite your friends!!)

As an aside I am thinking of having one of the Summer Tango in Nelson events here and I would like you all to trial the floor for me and to let me know if it is up to scratch!

Spring Tango





Split weight pivots and more - Sunday 2 Oct

SUNDAY TECHNIQUE CLASS
4.30 doors open for a 5pm start
St John's Hall in Hardy St

Tomorrow we are focussing on combining the split weight pivots with adornments and starting with some nuevo exercises to get us prepared for the upcoming weeks of blended moves.  You will like the combinations that are coming up of volcada leg wraps and split wight volcadas which can be used in Salon or Nuevo dancing. 

See you tomorrow!

Cafe del Tango @ KUSH

Reminder

Cafe del Tango's opening night is this Saturday at KUSH in Church St, 7pm.

Privates start again next week at Fairfield House.

Thank you to those that came to the Monday "keep the tango alive" nights while I was away.  Thanks to Mike and Sophie for opening up and providing the music.

Here is a little video from Chicho and Juana, the moves are slow and precise (especially Juana unhooking her feet from her skirt) check out the first colgada we learnt in class and some split weights pivots.

Have a great weekend and see you Sunday!

Nuevo dream connection

After a great week of nuevo classes I thought you may like to watch the king of nuevo for more ideas! Here's Chicho and Juana.

UP UP AND AWAY

Saturday 24 September is the launch of Cafe Del Tango @ Kush from 7pm

WHEN I RETURN

Group classes will resume Sunday 25 September at 4pm at St John's Hall in Hardy St

Hope you all have a wonderful two weeks.  If I have a few spare moments in Sydney I will give you sone updates on the scene over there.

See you soon...

Cheers

Anne-Maree
