Tango Paris
As I have mentioned in my travelling photos section, there seems to be nightly (weather permitting) Argentine Tango along the bank of River Seine in Paris.
During the week nights, there were usually 9-10 couples on the floor at any given time, and still with plenty of room to spare. Was a little disappointed because can’t really say that there were too many genuinely good leaders there. The leading seemed to be done more with the arms than the body. However, the organiser for the weekday events seemed to be able to lead many flashy moves and quite entertaining during a long stretch of Pugliese tracks.
Essence of Tango?
Was at the Open House for one of the local arts venues called Substation this afternoon. There was a couple of sessions on Argentine Tango, as one of the tanguera will be teaching some Tango classes there.
Back to basics
It seems I have not commented on Tango for a while now. Not as an excuse, but I have been rather inactive for the past month and a half in order to concentrate on my studies (the ACCA course on Financial Management). Actually, for the people in the know, this is just another sign of ill-preparation up to this point!
