Wednesday 24 Apr
Event Type: Class
Croydon Youth Theatre, South Norwood
Class and Practilonga
Time: 20:00 - 22:00
We are trying something new this year. Instead of every week being the same format, on the last Wednesday of the month the first hour (ish) will be the normal lesson format, and the second hour will be an open practilonga. So from 20:00 until around 21:00 when we break for tea / coffee / biscuits I will run a normal class, and then from 21:00 until we finish at 22:00 I'll play my usual mix of alternative tango music and you can dance as much as you like!
So if you have ever wondered about trying alternative tango - sometimes called neotango or tango nuevo - this is an ideal time to try it out.
Still only £10 for the whole evening.
Thursday 25 Apr
Event Type: Class
St Lukes, Sevenoaks
Regular Class Night
Time: 20:00 - 22:30
A modern teaching style and modern music. If you have ever been put off by tango classes that spend as much time talking about the traditions and history as they do teaching you how to dance, then give us a try.
Graham teaches using a modern style that concentrates on understanding the technique of tango rather than learning sequences of steps. The tango itself is the same, but the music and the approach may be quite different to what you have seen before. And if you are new to tango then our relaxed and welcoming classes are an ideal introduction.

Friday 17 May
Event Type: Neolonga
Dunton Green, Dunton Green Village Hall
X/Tango is Back!
Time: 20:00 - 22:30
Join us in Dunton Green for our first X/Tango in far too long!
Do you love tango, but just cannot get on with the "traditional" music played at so many milongas? Do you want to get on the floor and dance without all the messing around with cabeceo & mirada - and risking getting told off for daring to go up to someone and asking if they would like to dance? Do you want to expand your tango horizons and find out just how versatile this amazing dance style can be? And do you want to be able to dance other styles such as blues or slow leroc if the mood takes you without the dance police extracting you from the floor by your ear?
If you answered "yes" to any of those you should come along to X/Tango and see what a modern Argentine Tango neolonga can really be like!
Graham plays a selection of alternative tango-danceable music from every genre across the spectrum, some modern electro nuevo that takes the essence of the traditional style and brings it into the 21st century, and occasional wild-cards that will test your musicality. And there will be no vintage "traditional" music at all.
Price for this opening event will be £10 per person. Future X/Tango events will be £12 to stay in line with the price increase of all our classes.
