Tango Newsletter 5/18/2013

Milongueras, Milongueros,


This will be my last week in Columbus for a long while, so we are adding MONDAY 5/20 to SATURDAY (tonight, 5/18, and also 5/25) and WEDNESDAY (5/22). Always 8pm at HAYES HALL lobby.  Our website: http://atco.osu.edu/ Free street parking: E. 16th Ave, Waldeck Ave., Iuka Ave. The format will be a lesson by faithfully yours for all levels, mixed with Practica. There is always room for new people: no partner necessary, no dress code, no experience assumed, two left feet okay, need not be a student or affiliated with OSU.

Years ago a student - who is still my FB friend - told me that teaching Argentine Tango (AT) in Columbus was like teaching Swahili - who needs it. Indeed in a way teaching AT here is like teaching English in the jungle, to use the analogy. There is so much fake Tango around, with many names, and they often insist on inserting the word "Argentine": Ballroom Tango, Hollywood "Argentine" Tango, or just Vulgar (or Irina) Tango. Takes time to explain to the masses the difference.

However, I have been incredibly lucky to have a wonderful group of students that advanced rapidly and understood the essence of this art form, and would continue it here. The policy of putting the students first (as opposed to using a couple token students to reserve Ohio Union space for non-students) was effective. Also I am most grateful to Dept. of Design chair Paul Nini, and to Polly, for letting us use the lobby of their historical, beautiful building. We now open the doors to the oval for fresh air and mix in- and outdoor.

We may not use much of the mailing list. Best source of info will be our Facebook page (please join the group, see photos and videos): ATCO: Argentine Tango in Columbus, Ohio and AsianTANGO

We shall use our blogs: http://atcotango.blogspot.com/ (regularly)
and http://tangoosu.blogspot.com/ (standing message).

Official website is http://atco.osu.edu/

Do not be confused by other websites, which do not represent us, including those we used in the past.

Usual prices in May: OSU undergrads $5, other students $7, others $10 per night.

We always meet at HAYES HALL lobby, northeast side of the Oval: 


See you on the dance floor,

Tango Newsletter 5/7/2013

Milongueras, Milongueros,


I am delighted to intimate that there is Tango in Columbus, thanks to some of our experienced dancers who are still in town, and some new, wonderful additions. The weather is kind to us, we dance outdoors too, in the Oval, in front of Hayes Hall. There is room for new people: no partner necessary, no dress code, no experience assumed, two left feet okay. Do not lose time: use May to its fullest, it will be a last opportunity for a long time to learn genuine Argentine Tango and improve your skills.  

In MAY we meet all Wednesdays and Saturdays, 8pm, @ HAYES HALL lobby. The meetings combine lessons for beginners and for experienced Tango dancers, as well as a Practica too, in parallel: come early. I urge people on this list that hesitated until now to seize this last opportunity to learn the royal dance, and improve your skills. 

Usual prices: OSU undergrads $20, other students $25, others $40 for all May sessions. Alternatively: $5/$7/$10 per night.

We always meet at HAYES HALL lobby, northeast side of the Oval:

Milongueras, Milongueros,

In the MAY semester we shall meet as usual Wednesdays and Saturdays, 8pm, at HAYES HALL lobby. This will be the last opportunity for a long time to learn genuine Argentine Tango and improve your skills. The meetings will combine lessons for beginners and for experienced Tango dancers, as well as a Practica too, in parallel: come early. We urge people on this list that hesitated until now to seize this last opportunity to learn this kingly dance, and improve their skills. This will be a last opportunity for a long time.

We had a very interesting year, our members improved a lot. Now that the semester is over, many of our members dispersed around the globe, so we have room for new people: no experience assumed, no dress code, no partner necessary, two left feet okay. Experienced dancers who are still in Columbus are most welcome, but do not lose time: use May to its fullest!

Usual prices: OSU undergrads $20, other students $25, others $40 
for all May sessions. Alternatively: $5/$7/$10 per night.
