Welcome back to another fabulous 1st Friday Alternative/Nuevo Tango at OmCulture! This monthly dance is designed for those who love dancing tango to non-traditional tango music which can include everything from sumptuous Nuevo to non-tango alternative.This format lends itself well to more open embrace, bigger movements and even non-tango styling. It's a fun, friendly environment in which everyone is welcome and all are encouraged to be proactive about getting on the floor. There is no Tanda requirement to dance 3 or 4 songs in a row. In this dance it is perfectly acceptable to dance several dances in a row or just one - your choice!
As always, Michelle Badion will lead us in a 30 minute ice-breaker class that will get us all dancing and teach us one 'cool move' to practice in a Rueda (wheel or circle) format so everyone gets to dance with everyone.
This month we have a special treat with Tangueros del Oeste who will play a short set as part of our evening offering. this Grammy nominated band from the Bay area will be doing a full live set at the Tango Barn on Sunday, Oct 4. Take this opportunity to get a preview of the Sunday set!
Our DJ this month had DJd at OmCulture at couple of times before and has instantly become an Alt/Nuevo favorite. Please welcome back DJ Danni for yet another fabulous Alt/Nuevo evening!
