Leaders / beginners / October milonga / Tango Spa
WHERE ARE THE MEN/LEADERS? Fridays at St Mary's used to have the 6.30 class as a sort of gentlemen's club, but our new recruits have totally changed that and if anything it is now the other way. The later classes have usually, but not always, got steadily more follower dominated as the evening moved on. The followers seem to take this in their stride, and the "bus stop" system helps during the classes, but the leaders can find it a tough evening!
SO if you are a leader, or were a leader, at any level please do come along to the relevant classes on Fridays. In fact if you are not yet but want to be a leader come along at 6.30; it is not too late to join the new series.
The classes are fun as well as very useful as is the practica which ends the evening, with some cake and wine, so do come-whatever role you choose. Absolute beginners can still be catered for.

To make the Golden October edition of Milonga La Ideal even more special the DJ will be Charles Long, of the Eton milongas, probably the most popular milongas in the country. This is on top of having the 2014 World Salon Tango Champion Lorena Gonzalez Cattaneo with Gaston Camejo
as special guests.
