QTL Beginners - Week 1

QTL is back from our summer break!

Never danced before? Danced before but only led? or followed? Danced the cha cha but never the tango? Out of practice? Now's the time to give Queer Tango London a try! Every Monday for 6 weeks from September 10th QTL's Gawaine Preston will be giving a beginners crash course aimed at getting you dancing.

8:30PM - 9:30PM - Class 1: Walking

“If you can walk without falling over, you can tango.” We will give you the foundations of the dance: walking, walking in couples and walking in couples as a “ronda” or anti-clockwise circle on the dance floor, forwards, as leader, backwards as a follower and sideways for both!

8:30PM - 11:00PM - Practica

Running alongside Class 1 our regular practice space is open. A chance to dance socially and try new steps in a relaxed and friendly environment to a range of tango music, old and new, from our resident DJ Tom Cottle. Refreshments (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) will be available.

QTL’s vision of Tango is an inclusive one: If you want to dance tango – and maybe experiment with who does what, why, and how – we want to encourage that curiosity. You will always be welcome at QTL whoever you wish to dance with.
