20 euros Amigas & amigos,The adventure lasted 16 (SIXTEEN) years, and above all, what I feel is an enormous sense of gratitude.More than 700 milongas in one of the most beautiful venues in the city. I had dreamed of turning it into a little corner of Buenos Aires, with a weekly, popular milonga, truly porteña, in a magnificent setting — and of making it last… and that’s exactly what happened.Now it’s time to say goodbye, with no sadness and no regrets.There a...

TANGO ESCENARIO — FORMATIONLe Tango Escenario est une forme de tango pensée pour la scène. Il conserve les fondements du tango argentin — la connexion, l’écoute, l’abrazo, la musicalité et le dialogue entre les partenaires — tout en ouvrant la danse à une autre dimension : l’espace, la composition, l’interprétation et l’expression scénique. Le travail du Tango Escenario ne se limite donc pas aux fi...

Read MoreCiudad Baigon @ Bouche à Oreille
Last Thursday the Patio de Tango was a crowded place, not only because of the dancers, but also because of the 12-person orchestra on stage: Orquesta Tipica Ciudad Baigon, straight from Buenos Aires. Not only was the music excellent, the musicians were also popular, specifically some of the bandoneon players, as the ladies in front […]

Read MoreTango is part of the “Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity”

UNESCO said heritages seeking approval, transmit from “generation to generation” and give “communities and groups a feeling of identity”. It added that the dance “embodies […]

Read MorePhotos: last Milonga @ Kiosque of 2009
Every summer has to end at some point, and we ended it with a bang. A brilliant sun, a bunch of sharply dressed dancers and a dozen bottles of cava. The last Milonga @ Kiosque was a worthy end of a splendid season of outdoor milongas in the middle of the cutest Brussels park.
Read MoreNEW: Overview of tango courses in Belgium
I’ve put some time in the creation of a better database for tango courses in Belgium, just in time for the start of the new academic year. The list I had before was incomplete and outdated, and I started from scratch a week ago. I received already a lot of data from different teachers all […]
Read MoreBelgian couple in the Mundial de Tango
There was a Belgian couple from Gent in the Mundial de Tango 2009 in Buenos Aires. I hadn’t heard from the Belgian qualifications (two years ago it was called the Tango Marathon) and to be honest, I have never seen the dancers, Yannick Vanhove & Lieske De Vuyst, before either. Seems there must be an […]

Read MorePhotos: Milonga @ La Tangueria
It had been months, what with the summer activities of Marisa & Oliver, but finally there was another Tangueria milonga! I didn’t take a lot of pictures, but with the few that were worth showing, I experimented a bit. Not just extreme contrast but also extreme coloured contrast. Feel free to give feedback!
