If you enjoyed that video, have a look at <a href="http://mshedgehog.blogspot.com/2009/07/social-dancing-videos.html" rel="nofollow">this one</a> - 6 hours from St. Pancras on the Eurostar. You could probably fly direct from Manchester to either location - a very short haul and wouldn't cost you as much as a trip to London of the same length.<br /><br />@Andreas - I'm pondering the practicality and budget.

Hell, watching this vid makes me want to go badly - so many people in there I know, and like, and haven't seen for months. I expect there to be quite a number of really good dancers. And it's relatively quick and easy to get there for me.<br />So maybe I'll see you there.<br />Tangogales: yes, there are quite a few traditional milongas in Europe, and some with very good dancing indeed.Andreashttp://www.tangokombinat.de/uk_news.htmnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391293127288856260.post-49735078355402092402009-12-21T13:48:26.229+00:002009-12-21T13:48:26.229+00:00So there are some traditional milongas in Europe. ...So there are some traditional milongas in Europe. That looked almost like Buenos Aires. Cote d Azure is a bit far for a weekend milonga, but it is worth keeping in mind hay.<br />We do not yet get that volume of people up here, but just maybe, that day will come.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391293127288856260.post-46789781968977718602009-12-20T18:50:08.710+00:002009-12-20T18:50:08.710+00:00Many thanks for that one, MsH, not least because t...Many thanks for that one, MsH, not least because that's exactly the part of France I end up in when I go south. I looked for tango there last year, but failed to come across this website. I'll definitely pack my shoes next time I go!<br /><br />& the dancing is just right; gentle, musical, enjoyable. & to me, right now, the floor looks about half empty too, ha ha ha! which at least makes leading a lot simpler.<br /><br />The 'difficult and dramatic' stuff is just the legacy of that old stage tango stuff isn't it? I hope we're onto something a bit better now!Tangocommuterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14060601718946750364noreply@blogger.com
