​Before we start our 5-week beginner course (aka, this bad boi https://www.facebook.com/events/1269246888374660), we're bringing in the pros. Lucia's coming from Argentina to teach us things we didn't know we needed to learn.
​She will guide us through some basics: how to stand, how to connect, how to walk with another human in front of you without it being awkward.
​When: Saturday Jan 24, 6:00-7:00pm (1 hour)
​Where: Nilupul Foundation, 51 Reform Street

​👉 After the workshop: Stay over and practice and socialize from 7-11pm. Try what you just learned, watch other people dance, ask questions, make friends. You've already paid for the workshop, the practice is included.

​👉 What happens next: This is the kickoff for our 5-week beginner course starting Friday Jan 30.
Last time Daniela ran a beginner intro, she promised ongoing classes and then was too tired to deliver (shame shame). This time she's organized - Lucia gets us all excited on Saturday, then we spend 5 weeks actually learning this thing properly.
​If you like this workshop, join the Friday course. If you can't make this workshop, the Friday course starts from zero anyway.

​👉 About the Teacher
​Lucia's been dancing and choreographing tango professionally for 20+ years. She's performed in major shows across Argentina (Tango Malambo, Compañía Mora Godoy, Señor Tango, and more), toured internationally with Julio Iglesias, and danced at the G20 summit representing Argentina-Japan relations.
​In 2019, she was named "Outstanding Nikkei of the Year" in the arts category. She's also spent years (since 2016 to be exact) producing milongas, concerts, and shows - so she knows her stuff. (Source: https://dancehouse.ca/videla/)

​👉 Pricing:
-> ​£15 early bird (book before Jan 13)
-> £20 regular (after Jan 13 or at door)

​​👉 Cancellations: Refund if you cancel 7+ days before the event. After that, you'll get credit for future classes instead - we all have full-time jobs and chasing refunds creates chaos. If you really need to cancel, let us know 😊
