De Danswerkplaats | Amersfoort, UT

The best tango's, played by the best DJ's in the wonderful ambiance of De Danswerkplaats in Amersfoort. That's Milonga La Roca. The place to go to for every really die-hard dancer. Every 3rd saturday of the month. Easy to reach by train and car (free parking), vibrant atmosphere next to the old town. The music stops earlier if less than 15 people are staying.
Entrance 12 euro.
BRING YOUR OWN WATERBOTTLE
Our Party magician, musical maestro the one and only DJ Jonas Maria will be back. No other DJ can create the vibe he can, so be there!
Reservation: I have max 120 dancers, balanced. Make your reservation at De tangokalender. You can register also single, but you might be on the waitinglist until we are balanced. But you're always welcome to join at 23.30 (not a minute earlier) for 5 euro.
As you know La Roca is a place for Close Embrace/Ronda lovers. It's always crowded. So i do expect (and so do all dancers) that you dance as tight as you can i a beautiful ronda and no movements with a foot/leg in the air. And please, only ask with Mirada/Cabaceo.
When entering the dancefloor (leaders and followers) make sure the dancer just arriving gives you space to enter. So please make eyecontact first. Dear leaders, choose where to dance: inside or outside ronda. No changing of lines please! You might think you are good at this, but think of the dancers where you suddenly appear where they thought they had some space. Don't give your follower big and/or upward movements. Followers, keep your feet on the ground and only follow the lead so your partner can control the complete movement of the couple.
So we can keep the floor nice and 'quiet' and everybody will have a wonderful La Roca.
If all of this isn't your way of dancing, i absolutely would like to meet you at other milonga's but consider La Roca as not your place to go to.
