The July edition of Tango Warwick's monthly traditional and welcoming milonga. Guest DJ: Irina Zoueva of
Tango Secrets.
Warwick is close to the geographic centre of England and a major tourist area (Warwick Castle, Stratford on Avon, Kenilworth,...). The milonga attracts participants from all directions, making for a lively, dynamic, evening.
We will be at our atmospheric home, Warwick SPACE. It is a large room with a good floor, in a space reminiscent of Buenos Aires' Sunderland Club (some say), and with great acoustics.
There will be some nibbles, cold soft drinks, fine cordials, and wine for early arrivers, but BYOB if you wish.
We encourage good tango, nice ronda and cabeceo!
It will be the friendly, joyful, welcoming, and lively, milonga tango dancers have come to love. Above all there will be a warm welcome for visitors, occasionals, and regulars alike.
Come and join friendly dancers from all over the region, and beyond, in the creation of lovely dances inspired by Irina's music. A superb summer evening for the enjoyment of tango!
IRINA ZOUEVA: Irina is resident DJ for Tango Secrets practicas and milongas in west London. In addition, she is regularly invited to be guest DJ at various milongas in the UK and encuentros/marathons across Europe. Her choice of music is traditional. She prefers tangos mainly from the Golden Age, with an occasional tanda from the 20s or 50-60s, or orchestras of the 21st century.
" I like to vary the mood, pace and overall energy of the dance floor from tanda to tanda, provoking and supporting the interest and enthusiasm of the dancers. I choose only "music for the feet" - the tangos that make you want to dance every tanda. When I see empty chairs and a full dance floor, I know that my goal as a DJ has been achieved!"
WARWICK SPACE is on the north side of the main road north of the river between Leamington and Warwick; next to the Black Pug pub, aka Millwright Arms, and almost opposite a Sainsbury local. It is a short walk from Warwick Railway Station, and not far from M40 and A46. There are several hotels & B&B's nearby in this tourist area. The Castle Limes Hotel is a few minutes away. Kenilworth hotels are a short drive away. You can even stay in Warwick Castle grounds.
At door, cash only: £12 (£8 for students with student card). IN CASH.
