Last lesson

this last lesson gave me a lot of confident. As chuck sort of reviewed steps with us, i realized how much i had really learned. And although maybe I just learned some of the easiest and most basic steps, I know that I can mix all of those steps wherever I want and it looks like I actually know what I am doing. I realized how much easier the steps were coming to me the more time I practiced them, I dint have to think as long and I hardly ever looked down on my feet. I also noticed my posture improved a lot more which made it easier for me not to look down to my feet but also for my partner to understand what I am trying to lead her into. Overall this class increased my interest for tango. Even if its not something I do right away, its something I am interesting in doing more. I will continue to dance tango whenever I have the chance to take a lesson. Thankfully because of this class I will know where I can access these tango resources that exits in Denver.

Milonga at the mercury

I usually attend the Mercury Cafe for other events. It was great to come in to the Minlonga it really made me love the place more each time. The milonga itself was such a cool thing to watch. Although the majority of the folks there were older than most of us in class there were surprisingly a quite a bit of young folks dancing that night. I had predicted me and who ever else from the class went would be the only young people around but I was wrong. i noticed that all of the older men in the rooms were great dancers though. It seemed as though tango was in their bones, they moved with such patience and determination. The people seemed pretty nice  and welcoming. I felt comfortable being there, I just wished I would have been a little more comfortable and actually danced. I really enjoyed how the alternative music was put in between tandas. It was really cool listening to these modern songs and seeing how tango could easily be incorporated. It seems as thou all that really matters is finding the tango rhythm in every song.
