If women are “allowed” to propose marriage today, should we be “allowed” to ask someone to dance at milongas on the 29th Feb?
I may have to steady myself, things are moving too fast.

Leaps and Bounds
Leaps and bounds sometimes,
others you can feel like it’s a wild goose chase.
Discover the most beautiful delicate thing, glass inside glass so fragile you don’t want to breathe on it.
So full of light you can’t let the sun leave it alone, the enchantment is too strong,
there is darkness too,
nights that are silent and heavy, legs that don’t work,
broken embraces that pain the heart and make it cry
It’s a journey some say,
A labyrinth, a quest,
a treasure hunt that celebrates each find ,
yes to the jubilation, not because the journey is shorter, but because you discovered something hidden along the way.
March timetable
8 week course at Pineapple
8 weeks at Pineapple on a Thursday night with me starting 8th March. We’ll be looking at simple ideas that make you dance well in the milonga, it’s what I love. Hope you do too. More info here

Your brain on Tango
Petri Toiviainen has produced a really cool simulation of what happens to your brain when listening to Tango music. I wonder what it would look like with different Orchestras and oooh if your favourite tanda. More please Petri.
