Dear friends,

Last weekend (5-6 December) saw the conclusion of another successful Art of Tango series of workshops with Hsueh-tze Lee. The class materials for the final two days were challenging but also certain to enrich our dancing in the near future. Overall, all of the classes were well attended, with close to 30 people for quite a few classes and more than 20 people even for the weekday class. More significantly the gender ratio was relatively well balanced for most classes - a good sign that male population in the tango community is slowly increasing.

Thanks to everyone who came to support the workshops and the milonga. In particular we would like to acknowledge the generous support of Xen Bar for the milonga, and Niranjan for helping with the accommodation for Hsueh-tze. It is always a challenge to organise an event such as this and we (myself, Janet, How Meng and Su Lynn) appreciate all your support and advice!

The group photos from the workshops have been posted at the Facebook Event page here:

How to follow up after the workshops?

In our experience, the best way to get the most of any workshops is to try to recall and practice the new materials while these ideas are still relatively fresh on the mind and preferably practicing together with other workshop participants. I am usually available to guide some exercises during the Friday practicas at Xen Bar. You are welcome to come and discuss anything related to the workshop or other technical issues.

Practica @ Xen Bar
Time: Every Friday 9.30pm - 12am
Cost: $8, includes 1 drink

During the holiday season in the coming weeks, the Tuesday milongas at Xen Bar will continue as usual. However, I will be overseas as of next week (22 December) and will resume the DJ role in the 3rd week of January on 12 January 2010. During my absence, Niranjan will look after the DJ duties. Please look for Niranjan if you would like to help in any way.

Milonga @ Xen Bar
Time: Every Tuesday 8.30pm - 12am
Cost: $8, includes 1 drink

Finally if I don't see you before the end of 2009, stay safe during the holidays and happy dancing! And Merry Christmas to all!

Cheers,
Louis.
