Hello list,
I will be in Sao Paulo between 24 and 30 January, 2000.
Does someone know if there is some places for dance Tango there?
Thank you very much, in advance for any suggestions.

Subject: NA-W: WORKSHOP-TANGO TECHINQUE-MARCELO SOLIS- LAFAYETTE, CA
Workshop on Sunday, February 6, 3:30-5:30pm, The Studio, 1018 Almanor Lane,
Lafayette, CA.
Marcelo Solis will give a workshop of technique for both men and women who
wish to improve their Argentine Tango execution. It is learning the "how to"
rather than the "what". Please wear comfortable, loose, exercise clothing
and sneakers and be prepared to go barefoot or work in socks.
The workshop will cover the following:
Body self-knowledge--Know your own body before leading someone else's body.
Breathing--Exercises for how to breath while dancing.
Rhythm and Musicality--Quality of movements: sharp/smooth, circular/straight,
continuos/discontinuos.
Know your feet--How to step on the floor.
Stretching.
Body centers and focus.
Body conversation.
Cost is $30 per person. Call Jeanne Hill (925) 283-0191 for reservations
(space is limited).
