Subject: EU-W: Oct 1-8 Tango class with Amira Campora in Umbria, Italy
October 1-8, 2000: One week of Tango with Amira C`mpora (Buenos
Aires) at Villa La Rogaia, an old Umbrian country house on the northern
shore of Lake Trasimeno near Perugia, Italy.
Availability for only one more couple and a single lady!
Amira C`mpora was mainly influenced by Graciela Gonzalez
and Gustavo Naveira. She teaches the Tango of the old Milongero Masters,
working on the sense of music and rhythm, to encourage variation and
improvisation in the dance.
Special last minute price:
US $ 400 (instead of $ 445)
DM 800,- (instead of DM 890,-)
Lit 800.000 (instead of Lit 890.000)
(includes teaching 3 hours each day, lodging in doubleroom, breakfast
and
dinner with Umbrian specialties for 7 days)
Tango classes will be held in the ballroom on our large terrace or. The
lessons will last for three hours a day, allowing plenty
of time to enjoy the garden, pool and surroundings of the Villa and to
go for trips to the nearby lake or towns (Perugia, Siena, Assisi,
Florence). At the end of the course there will be a dance at the Villa
La Rogaia with members of the local Tango community.
The course is designed for medium to advanced level students. Teaching
will be intense as the number of participants is limited to 5 - 6
couples.

Subject: UPDATE HIT & RUN MILONGA SAN FRANCISCO
C O N F I D E N T I A L
In the way of an update:
HIT AND RUN MILONGA
cordially invites you to a Tango happening
MAIDEN LANE IN SAN FRANCISCO
with
Dale Meyer and his Live Tango Band
STRICTLY TANGO
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 2000
Hours 1 til 3 PM
St. Francis Hotel after for drinks and laughs and MORE TANGO
On Sunday, September 10, 2000 (weather permitting), a HIT AND RUN
MILONGA
will be held from 1PM to 3PM at Maiden Lane between Grant and Kearny
Streets (near Union Square) in San Francisco. This is the same location
as the last Hit and Run Milonga.
Dale Meyer and his Strictly Tango band will provide the live music.
As many of you know, Maiden Lane is closed to auto traffic so we can
dance in the street and on the sidewalk. Many tourists and others will
be in the area so an audience should develop.
Our object is to create a 1920's like Buenos Aires street milonga scene
so we ask that some of you (those who may wish) come in period dress
(women in headbands, perhaps box hats, feathers, whatever - - men in
double-breasted suits, hats, whatever). Of course, any dress is
acceptable. As to the "run" in HIT AND RUN, the "run" part is that
(those who survive) intend to escape to the St. Francis Hotel for drinks
and laughs after, AND ALSO MORE TANGO, all to the beautiful live piano
music of Alberto Montenegro. Alberto knows quite a bit of Argentine
Tango music. As the St. Francis Hotel holds a very nice English Tea
on Sunday afternoons in the beautiful Compass Rose Room, people there
are often well dressed (for us the English Tea part is optional). The
afternoon should be a lot of fun.
Donation - A $2.00 per person donation for the band will be appreciated.
Parking - Inexpensive parking is available at the Sutter/Stockton
garage.
Dance surface - The street is asphalt, but the surface is fairly good
(except for minor potholes). Just kidding.
However, it is suggested you leave your best dance shoes at home.
For information, call 650-328-2718
