Read MoreLast weekend Brussels welcomed El Pibe Sarandi, a Buenos Aires maestro with more then 50 years of tango experience. Benedicte and Jens-Ingo invited him to the Brussels Royal Yacht Club. He gave a demo together with Benedicte of his smooth milonga style. The BRYC is a beautiful place to dance; check out the collection of […]
Read MoreEvery now and then Dante & Monik organize a milonga with performances in La Tentation. This weekend it was the Enrique Nicolas Tango Quartet performing, as well as a demo of both Monik & Dante (tango) and Julio Garrido (zapateo).
Read MoreIt’s always a pleasure to see Maryline & Vincent perform, and so I didn’t want to miss the demo they would give after their workshop at Garage29. It was also the first time I went to this … garage, and I rather liked its character. The light was a bit difficult on the dancefloor, but […]
Read MoreJust when the logistics of organizing the Milonga @ Kiosque had become a routine, we were taught a lesson by the forces of Random Error and Elaborate Sabotaging. When we arrived, the gates were not open, so we had to carry everything by hand to the Kiosque, and when we had done that and tried […]
Read MoreDJ Philippe did an interesting educational experiment last Kiosque: he had printed out all composers, orchestras and singers, and kept us informed during every tanda who was playing. It was a nice touch to a cosy milonga. There was rain announced, but our own guardian milonguero from above kept it dry. We had cake and […]

Dany gave a demo of four milongas, and I don’t mean slow ones, in a row and, together with Lucia Mirzan, showed everyone […]
Read MoreThe fourth edition of the Kiosque milonga was a delight. Apart from some sporadic drizzle, it was a perfect outdoor dancing occasion. DJ Mala not only took care of beautiful music, she also made a delicious Баница for the dancers. We saw some new faces, visitors from the Marathon del Chocolate, and others who just […]
Read MoreThe summer is an active tango time in Brussels, an example of that is the new milonga on Saturdays: Milonga du Soleil. Last week’s edition featured a demo from a couple teachers from Paris: Ariane and Ozgur. Ozgur has been coming to Brussels often, and never fails to look good on pictures, partly because he […]
Read MoreIt was kind of an unusual Kiosque this Saturday. When we arrived to set up the milonga, there was a guy sleeping in the kiosque. As we started making a bit of noise, he got up, apologized and moved to a tent just outside the kiosque to resume his sleep. Because it started raining around […]
Read MoreDJ Jens-Ingo’s debut at Milonga @ Kiosque was a clear success. His musicality, combined with the bursts of sun and a cool breeze, made for a crowd ful of smiling dancers: Next edition: July 16 with DJ Mala! See all photos in the Kiosque album
Read MoreSilly me, I forgot to put the starting hour on the flyer: the milonga @ Kiosque starts at 6PM (18:00), until 11PM (23:00). First edition: this Saturday, with DJ Jens-Ingo. If you want to dance in the sun, come early!
