thames vallery tango - argentinian tango lessons and events

In August we travel to the beautiful and inspirational mountain location of Morzine for our Tango in the Alps holidays. Morzine is only an hour from Geneva, with cool clean mountain air, spectacular scenery, luxury accommodation, and wonderful food and wine.

 

These are concentrated weekends of Tango run by Thames Valley Tango. Come and learn then dance the nights away in the French Alps.

 

Dates

28th Aug - 1st Sept 2009

 

The location
Morzine is an hour from Geneva, with cool clean mountain air, spectacular scenery, wonderful food and wine. Morzine is the perfect summer destination because there is so much to do; there really is something to suit everyone! Valley hikes, ice skating, parapenting, hot air ballooning, easy access mountain restaurants, lake-side walks, shopping, bars.

 

The teachers

The team from Thames Valley Tango will be your teachers for the weekend.

 

"Thank you very much for all your help and all the super Tango teaching in Morzine -

I really enjoyed and appreciated it. Everyone I spoke to said the same and agreed with me that the holiday was a great success"

 

"I thoroughly enjoyed your charming and witty company, the setting was spectacular, the food was delicious and above all dancing three times a day was priceless!"

 

"Thank you for another brilliant weekend away. So much still to learn, and, again, this time I really really think I might have got it"

 

"...just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed the Tango weekend over the Bank Holiday. We really appreciated the lengths you went to, to make it a great weekend. It was a great crowd of people,... I am sure all the extra tango classes and practice have made an impact on my dancing"

 

A feast of Tango
Each morning will be spent in learning and developing new Tango skills. The lessons will be designed to suit the dancers so you will get the most from your weekend, but we expect that you will have been learning Tango for at least 6 months. The dance studio will be available every afternoon for you to practice, and experiment with dance ideas. We will come together after dinner to enjoy an evening of dancing. A chance to practice what you have learnt as night settles over the beautiful surroundings.
