Tango Musicality Handbook

 

Musicality has always been a significant part of our dancing and teaching. During our last trip to Buenos Aires we spent time with Professor Joaquin Amenabar exploring musicality to greater depths.

 

Professor Amenabar is a world class bandoneon player who recently visited Sydney to launch his book
Tango: Let's Dance to the Music. click here for more

 

The book underscores musicality as the key element in tango. It's a step by step guide that will benefit tango dancers in many aspects. The book includes video and audio for practice and also planning for choreography.

Tango joins Father Chris Riley's cause

'A Little Buenos Aires' showcased Tango at the St Ives Lions Club Multicultural Concert. We feel very privileged to be a part of this event and thank all the dancers for their enthusiasm and generosity.

 

It's an important event to support the work of Father Chris Riley who founded the YOUTH OFF THE STREETS program in 1991. All proceeds will help Youth off the streets provide meals, crises care, refuges, schooling, drug and alcohol programs to homeless youths. "World unites to help priests charity"  North Shore Times.
