Martlesham Práctica
Fortnightly on Sundays 6.00 pm to 8.30 pm
Martlesham Leisure Club
What is a Práctica?
- A Práctica is a somewhere you can practise your Tango.
- Some people go to a Práctica just to enjoy dancing.
- Some people use it as a safe space to try out new moves or sequences, or to refine their technique
- Some people go to a Práctica to get verbal feedback and input on their dance from their dancing partners and to work out together what is working, what is not working, and how to improve.
The Prácticas will start at 6.00pm with a short introduction to the session from the Práctica leaders at 6.30 pm. The Práctica leaders will then be on hand to offer advice and assistance.
Some Prácticas will have a longer formal class starting at 6.30pm to provide more extensive tuition for everyone.
There is no need to book: simply turn up, with or without a partner.
The entry fee for dancers is £6 payable by cash or card, but there is no charge for those wishing only to watch, listen and chat.
There will be non-stop Argentine Tango music (plus the occasional contemporary track), a bar and a chance to meet and dance with other Tangueros.
