Milonga La Ideal +Chacarera class/ Diary for December & January
Tango Warwick's advent edition of Milonga La Ideal is a joint venture with Warwick University Argentine Tango Society. It is this Friday at 9.30 and preceded by a chacarera class. This joint venture will retain all the good parts you have come to expect: the warm welcome, good floor, great music with excellent acoustics, and lovely dances waiting to be had, but also have add on extra sparkle and energy (and beautifully baked cakes if rumours are correct).
Our guest DJ and the class teacher is Diego Denett from Rome (see below). We are very happy to welcome him!
There will be some nibbles and some wine for early arrivers, but BYOB if you wish.

WARWICK SPACE is on the north side of the main road north of the river between Leamington and Warwick. Next to the Millwright Arms now called "The Black Pug" and almost opposite a Sainsbury local. Parking is plentiful around the venue in residential areas but do not park on the pub next door or in Sainsbury’s – people have been known to be fined there! It is a short walk from Warwick Railway Station. There are several B&B's nearby and hotels etc in Leamington & Warwick.
LA CHACARERA is an Argentine Folklore dance, very elegant and good fun where the couple tries to get closer to each other by dancing in circles, but always remaining at a respectful distance. It is quite often danced at milongas in Britain.
The magic and challenge of Argentine folklore, in particular chacarera, is to feel a deep and passionate connection between two persons through eye contact!

*About Diego Diego Roberto Denett, born in Buenos Aires, is an Argentine tango dancer & teacher. He is known as a dedicated teacher who inspires people to dance, through technical skill, but also through transmission of his own enjoyment, happiness and beautiful energy in dancing. After years of own studies of tango, he started a personal search for the elements he considers fundamental: “elegancia, caminata y la respiracitón” (elegance, walking and breathing) as a base for a deeper and more passionate communication, all in one safe and closed embrace "Corazón a Corazón " Currently dividing his time between living in Rome and travelling around the world for teaching.
