"The
dancers body is simply
the luminous manifestation of their soul. This is the truly creative
dancer, natural but not imitative, speaking in movement out of self and
out of something greater than all selves"

Celebrating 25 Tango Tangks
Immerse yourself in a tango weekend
in the New Forest. We offer two different workshops - the Tangkademy
and the Super Tangk (we advise you which event is most suitable for
your level of technique).
For our 25th Tangk in June, we hosted Biki and Muzo from Utrecht and experienced their
inspirational teaching. Next year we plan to have them back to teach
both a Tangkademy and a Super Tangk.

Happy
Anniversary Tango UK!

Tango
UK is celebrating its 10th anniversary. We have been busy
planning this special year and have 72 events lined up for you.
As we look back at what we have achieved over the last 10 years, we
realise
that we could not have done it as effectively without the Tango UK
website which is designed, developed and edited in-house. We
have logged just under 1 million hits since we started recording
statistics in
January 2004. Thank you all for your interest!

Tango
Tangk Raises the Bar
A dear friend and
music maestro once
told me "people seem to have forgotten how to humble themselves to a
learning process". I have been reminded of his comments as we implement
a specific level of technique for dancers wanting to attend a Tango
Tangk.
Most dancers accept and trust our decision about their ability, but
some react as though we have insulted or humiliated them. Humility and
effective learning go hand in hand, and sadly, dancers who have not yet
made this connection compromise their ability to improve their
dance.
