Tangoesque: 1st Friday Alt\/Nuevo w DJ Michelle Badion

Happy New Year!
And, 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!
This month we welcome back Michelle Badion as our instructor and DJ. Michelle 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. She'll follow that with 2.5 hours of Alt/Nuevo music from her fabulous collection.
Cost: $20 (sliding scale available on request)
Cash or Venmo at door
Includes lesson, snacks and wine bar
