More tango

I’ve been taking a tango workshop this weekend with Tomas Howlin—an Argentinian from Montreal who has been here before to teach. It’s been wonderful. There seems to be more and more people interested in learning the dance. About thirty people in the beginner level. He’s a great teacher. Uses a lot of cute, smutty jokes to help us understand the posture and get in the mood for this very sensuous dance with its elegant form. A dance of one person with four legs! He called it a conversation in music and movement.

The only problem was, I was wearing new shoes. Ouch! I should know better!
