elegance vs passion

Last week i was sick. Well, no more sick but recovering from a bad week end with fever and everything.

As tuesday come, i was very happy to go back dancing, but suddenly i realized that going to dance was meaning spreading my disease to everyone, especially the ladies i will dance with. Is it acceptable ? it is not.

Of course i was really willing to dance but, it won't have been elegant and elegance is one major point of the tango.

So, a little bit disapointed, i stayed at home, listing for tango, alone, on my laptop

instead of sancho, the milonga was taking place at Ina's place.

a nice house, a big dance floor, some good musics, some delicious snacks, and a so welcoming host... thank you Ina !

Every tuesday from 7:30 pm to 10 pm (or more) come to Sancho's (E 3, 3rd Floor South extention II New Delhi) to dance tango. It's free, friendly, with cosmopolitan crowd.

Welcome to all !

return to Delhi

After some too long hollydays, i came back in Delhi on september 1th

I took me two weeks to come back and dance, mainly because the heat and the work took me too much energy for dancing.

Thanks to Madhu, Vishal, Sylvie & Claude, Ina and all the tango vida dancers, the sancho milomga was kept active during the summer (although the forget the tanda ;) )

After almost nine week without dancing, i was a little bit stressful , but after one or two tango to get back the music (sorry for the tanguera who were unlucky enough to dance with me too early) i finaly find the compass and could play again with the music.

Since that time, we had two milonga and one party. So tango is back. Last time we were about twelve, but eight man for four women, a situation very close from the tango root on the 19th century in Buenos Aires. So Me, Claude, Vishal, Ina and Saket, we had worked a little bit together while waiting for a free not tired tanguera. It is hard for us because none of us (except perhaps Claude and Saket) are good follower but we have tried to practice a nice step, brought by Ina from London. It was a nice variation of hiro where the woman make a full pivot to chase with her back legs the leg of the man, who is doing the same just the step after. We know how it is suppose to look like, but we have still to find the way to lead it...

So now the school year is starting back (at least for us, french people) i take the resolution to learn one or two more step properly, especially milonga one because i practice only few of them...

See you next tuesday !
