Dear all
Many thanks for your support of a very successful tango
workshop and milonga with Andreas Wichter last month. Some of you were
disappointed that you couldn't make it, and I hope we will be able to
organise another similar event soon: thanks for all the very positive
feedback from those who were there!
We are starting back with
our Wednesday Practicas on Wednesday 16 January--look forward to seeing
you all then, especially the many new dancers who have joined us
recently!
Best wishes
Jenny

Exciting News: Workshop and Christmas Milonga
Dear everyone
Exciting news: we are delighted to say that Andreas Wichter is coming to Aber for a Tango workshop the weekend of 15-16th December--and our Christmas Milonga will be on the Saturday evening. There will be classes--suitable for all levels including absolute beginners or those who've done just a few classes--on the Saturday, before the Milonga, and another class, again for all levels, and practica on the Sunday late morning. Private lessons will be on offer too, on the Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. More soon, but I wanted to let you know as soon as possible so that you can put the date in your diary. A whole weekend of tango in Aberystwyth--worth travelling for!! I'm taking bookings now for privates lessons, so do get in touch.
Best wishes

AberTango this Autumn
Our weekly tango Practicas will re-start for the Autumn on Wednesday 17 October--in just a fortnight's time--at the Quaker Meeting House in Penparcau as usual. For directions see the map above.
These are practice sessions with social dancing, not formal lessons, but beginners are always very welcome: we will be happy to help you get started! We begin at 8pm and go on until late--but there is no need to arrive exactly on time, or stay for the whole session: you are welcome to join later and leave earlier if you need to. The cost is £4 (£2 for students).
We are looking forward to welcoming back those of you who've been away for the summer--as well as welcoming new faces: I have had a number of enquiries recently from leaders interested in joining, as well as followers, so it looks as though there'll be quite a few new people.
Do get in touch if you have any queries, otherwise just turn up on the night. Shoes with slippy soles are all that's needed (so that you can pivot easily): we don't dress up particularly. Refreshments provided. And if you can bring a partner that's good, but if not, no problem: it is customary for us to change partners throughout the evening and for everyone to dance with everyone else, so no-one gets left out.
If you're not on the mailing list, let me know (jfe *at* aber.ac.uk) and I'll add your name so that if we do cancel at all you will get an email. We are also looking at the possibility of organising some classes/private lessons with a visiting teacher, and I will keep you posted with further announcements!
Best wishes--and looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday 17 October: put the date in your diaries now!!
