Madrid
.............................................................................
Then,
after virtually no Tango over the busiest 6
months of his life, he returned to Madrid.
The
Tango festival was about to begin and great
dancers were assembling from Buenos Aires.
.
|
| Six
great couples were to give Tango lessons. There were
several levels and they would also teach
speciality lessons.
He opted
for the intermediate level lessons with
additional classes in milonga and wals.
|
Gustavo Russo and
Alejandra Mantinon, who he had seen in
Tango Pasion, would be teaching Milonga
El Indio and
Mariana Fresno would be teaching Milonga
con Traspie
Pocho Pizzaro and
Patricia Verocay would teach Wals
Antonio Junior and
Mora Godoy would teach men's and women's
technique
Tete and Silvia
would be teaching Milonguero style salon
dancing
Pablo Ojeda and
Beatriz Romero would be teaching
technique for teachers
|
... and, every evening,
there was a Milonga.
In
one of these milongas, a guy he knew, not a
teacher but an avid enthusiast, taught him to
"put the miles in", to "take away
something from every lesson", and - most of
all - to "get out there and dance".
More
about all this later but now we must move on.
