Program
This Tango Café is dedicated to our InDansen Introduction Period and all newcomers.
We will start this evening by giving a beginners workshop in which we will show you some basic steps, with which you will certainly enjoy a dance or two during the night. Dancing might seem scary, but tonight is dedicated to those new to tango and our kind members will make sure that everyone enjoys the evening.
Blue Suede Shoes invites you to join our weekly Lindy social dancing, where you can learn new moves, practice your skills, and have fun with other dancers. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, you will find a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The social event starts with a beginners’ Lindy Hop workshop and a Rumba workshop where we teach you different moves, followed by social dancing and chatting.
Every week BSS organizes tango socials in which members practise the steps, dance a bit or hang out. Our practice moment is as much dedicated to dancing as it is to chit-chat and socializing. During InDansen we start the evening with a beginner workshop, in which we show the first tango steps or a new tango move (depending on the level of the group). No experience or partner needed, just bring your friends and your enthusiasm! After the workshop we take a moment to chill out, have some dances or a drink or two. After this evening you’ll see how much fun dancing can be 🙂
