Our programme

For us, Tango on holiday means: 20 hours, and when in conjunction with a cultural city programme, workshops comprising 12 hours. Because switching off and recuperating is one aspect, learning something new is the other. Naturally in beautiful and interesting surroundings, and with lovely people and good teachers.

Our holidays are designed in such a way that they offer sufficient space for individual arrangements, besides dancing together and having meals as a group. We offer travel brochures on site, make available country and hiking maps on a loan basis and will gladly provide you with many useful tips.

The position, facilities and style of the hotels make for a perfect framework. Our teachers always enjoy the holiday week tremendously themselves, and it is very important to them that their students take home with them good progress in terms of their dancing and wonderful memories of a relaxing yet intensive dancing session.

Our programme 2012

In 2012 our classes in holiday courses remain - mostly - unchanged at 20 hours. And: We offer again a city tour to Buenos Aires. New is a holiday focussing on Milonga in the evening and therefore only 12 hours of classes in the montains in autumn. We’ve provided an overview of themes, teachers, hotels, prices and dance levels for you.

Girar in Tango

26¦5–2¦6¦2012
Leogang with
Andrea y Martín

– Andrea Bestvater and Martín La Bruna place the emphasis of their classes on the enjoyment of dancing. Aiming for this, they would like to develop, with the help of step combinations and sequences, the communication of the couple and to improve the technical elements such as the embrace and frame.

Tango Intensivo

30¦6–5¦5
Tuscany with
Diana & Juan

– In the spacious Borgo Corsignano, during this week Diana & Juan will be concentrating on the individual technical and dancing advancement in Tango Argentino.

Milonga & Vals

18–25¦8¦2012
Tuscany with
Enrique y Judita

– Milonga is a fast, frolicsome rhythm, while Tango Vals is the Argentinian reply to the Viennese Waltz - very melodious and lively. How can one dance the Milonga without breaking out in a sweat? How does one achieve a flow in the Vals?

Bien Milonguero

1–8¦9¦2012
Tuscany with
Sandra & Ricardo

– Nobody needs to stay "stopped" when he can not move forward in overcrowded Milongas. Sandra Messina and Ricardo Calvo will teach techniques to turn in place and show movements that allow to be chained to each other without having to open or close a figure. And all this with the music, of course.

Tango Encuentro

7–13¦10¦2012
Leogang with
Enrique y Judita

– Encuentro: That means to meet others. To give the possibility to join with a lot of other Tangueros, we made an exception an reduced the workshop-hours to only 12 hours. So Enrique y Judita can teach in two or three groups. Of course everybody can book some hours of classes more...

Learning Tango to the Music

2–9¦6¦2012
Tuscany with
Claudia & Martin

– Listening to the music while learning the first tango steps: for the warm and refreshing couple from Vorarlberg and Buenos Aires this aspect of teaching is very important.

Tango Canyengue

8–14¦7¦2012
Lake Wolfgang
with Julia & Alexey

– The Wolfgangsee has been a favourite even among renowned people. In summer it entices visitors to swim – especially since our hotel is directly at the lake.

Dancing from the Heart

25¦8–1¦9¦2012
Tuscany with
Enrique y Judita

– The sharing, the togetherness of tango dancing – with the partner and in the group: this must never be lost sight of, and this will be worked on by Enrique y Judita during this week.

Dancing better to the Music

29¦9–6¦10¦2012
Elba with
Claudia & Martin

– Regularly in autumn Claudia and Martin teach in our hotel hidden in a calm bay in the south of the Tuscan island. There we will dance in a relaxed atmosphere on a covered terrace overlooking the blue sea.
