There are some brief announcements I’d like to share, nothing earth shattering to report, yet!
I spent a little more than a month substitute teaching at a studio in Berlin. I was lucky to have some German friends to help with translation as needed. We covered all sorts of topics including: milonga, boleos, paradas. We also did some general technique and dancing in small spaces close together! It was a lovely opportunity to continue to meet more dancers in Berlin. Although classes were small I think this was nice for them!
I have some spare time again with no teaching happening in Berlin so I thought I’d take the time to visit with friends both in France and in Belgium. I am happy to reunite with a friend I met during my year abroad in Rennes many many years ago now. She has a lovely family of 3 with her husband and lives with this marvelous view from her home on the Brittany coast.
I was contacted by 2 lovely women to teach some classes in Brest and am looking forward to that this evening and on Thursday!
I will then be back in Paris for a few days and then off to Brussels for more friend time and tango networking.
The weather has been mostly rainy, the sun came out just long enough for me to take a walk along the coast and capture that picture! I will be back in Berlin in mid-July and happy to be teaching with Raimund Schlie again in the Summer program at Mala Junta studio Berlin.
And Phoenix students/dancers, if you haven’t heard already, Sharon Alworth, is teaching Tango on Thursday nights prior to Milonga Mijana. She has a fun approach to teaching tango and is aiming to make Mijana a friendly milonga to attend! She often teaches with my former student, Bob Zeller, so go and enjoy their enthusiasm!
More pictures coming! In the meantime, thanks as always for following my blog!
