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...
Video: Patio de Tango
For those who wonder what the milonga “Patio de Tango” feels like, check out some videos that Diego shot: The first edition, on July 2nd (see photos), enjoyed plenty of sun, so people were sitting outside for food and drinks, and danced semi-inside.

We were a bit afraid for the weather at the second Milonga @ Kiosque, since there were a bunch of gloomy looking clouds passing over Brussels, but it turned out to be a fine afternoon at all. DJ Philippe gave us excellent tandas with some Kool & The Gang cortinas in between, which gave a […]

The summer is spoiling us, not only does the sun feel mediterranean, but we have a new open-air milonga in Brussels that allows us to enjoy it even more. Nosotros (Eugenia & Diego) have started their weekly “Patio de tango” event at the Bouche à Oreille (Etterbeek). During the summer months, every Thursday: drinks, food […]
Read MorePhotos: Milonga @ Kiosque #1
We were praying to the weather gods for the first edition of the Milonga @ Kiosque and apparently we were listened to. We got a splendid sunny day, lots of dancers and a nice concert on top. (photo: Peter C) Hernan Genovese was in Brussels for some concerts and came to sing in the Kiosque. […]
Read MoreAnnouncing: Milonga @ Kiosque, 2009
For the 6th year already, there will be milongas at the Kiosque in the Parc Royal/Warandepark in Brussels during the summer months. For those who have never done those: it’s an open air milonga, in the pittoresque kiosque, and most of the times, the weather is smashing! It’s really a unique location and atmosphere. The […]
Read MorePhotos: Tangueria, May 2009
It was a warm milonga, partly because it was almost 30° and most of us were thinking ‘why aren’t we at a BBQ?‘. Partly also because it was the birthday of Claudine and as these things go, several men battled over her during a birthday dance.

Last Saturday I went for the first time to the new Nosotros milonga in Cité Culture, Laeken. The venue is in the middle of a residential area with large apartment blocks, and when we arrived, we walked through a small park with tango music in the background and the smell of argentinian meat (cook: “El […]

Sven is investigating the options for offering nicer tango shoes for men in Belgium. To do this, he has prepared a questionnaire that he would like us men to fill in, to get a better feel of what tastes exist. So tangueros, please participate (you can win a pair of shoes), and hopefully soon we’ll […]
Read MoreMilonga + El Flaco Dany @ Pianofabriek
Last Sunday, Gisela and Sergio invited El Flaco Dany to the Pianofabriek to teach some milonga workshops and give a performance at the salon afterwards. He is a master in milonguero style as he demonstrated with Ada Mores and certainly with Gisela, who seemed surprised to be asked, but very happy to oblige. After that, […]
Read MoreMilonga + portraits @ La Tangueria
There are two Tangueria milongas per month and I go to most of them, so to make the last one a bit different, I decided to use only my favourite portrait lens and take some pictures away from the dance floor. I am quite happy with the results! First of all someone who prefers to […]
Read MoreBTF: taking pictures
Taking pictures at the festival was very rewarding: the venues are special, the people are beautiful, the lighting is challenging and you get lots of compliments. This year, it was even more fun for me, because I had invited a different friend photographer each evening. None of them are tango dancers or had a lot […]
