But you knew all that already...

DETAILS FOR FRIDAY 27TH MAY (essentially as usual):
We welcome single dancers as well as couples, newcomers as well as those we haven't seen for months, irregulars and regulars alike.
Beginners should join the 6.30 pm class. Experienced dancers also join it in order to perfect their techniques, and help bring on beginners.
The 7.15 pm and 8.30 pm classes are for more experienced dancers (in Argentine Tango) and by approval of the teachers-if that fits you please come-you will get a warm welcome. In the 7.15 class on 25th Feb the fundamentals of milonga will be introduced, with the more advanced 3rd class devoted to that exciting and fun dance.
The evening is completed by a sociable and lively practica, with some wine, soft drinks and cake. Juan de Scarfo will be guest DJ. It will be instructive, friendly, and a very enjoyable evening's dancing.
The teachers are our superb "resident" teachers: Luis Rodriguez and Elizabeth Knock. Their emphasis on elegance and musicality and with dancing in milongas in mind has made them justly popular.
They are based in London. See https://tangoynadamas.org for more about them. They are often available for private or semi-private classes on Saturdays. For this please contact them via Luisyelitango@gmail.com
