News!
Presently we are having most of our events @ Casa Blanca Cafe . There is usually a GREAT crowd at our Thursday night practica. Enter Casa Practica video ! However, Social Argentine Tango is growing in Augusta, Ga. We will soon be having more events not only at Casa Blanca in Augusta and Just Tango Steakhouse in Aiken S.C.!
Our principles
Although we do perform locally and beyond, we are a social Argentine Tango Club. You should expect safe dancing with a friendly crowd at our events. Performance tango is not restricted in space; social tango is. With social dancing, you are dancing not only with your partner, but with the other dancers on the floor. To maximize fun for all, Good milonga etiquette and respect for other dancers is expected. Although most events are free we expect visitors to support the venues in some small way.
Club trips
We went to a very nice milonga in Charlotte, NC last weekend (4-10-11). Tango and Tea is an afternoon milonga that is free. Located in the atrium of Amelie’s (a French Bakery). The music was very good, a little warm, but still fun. Augusta Tango Club clip of Tango and Tea.
Robin Thomas and Jenna Rohrbacher visited Atlanta for a workshop weekend. We attended 3 excellent Milongas Callanwolde Milonga , Milonga del Corazon , and a traditional Atlanta favorite Milonga BA (click to view sample videos)
We recommend you join Augusta Tango Club Facebook Group for updates on our activities. For events in other cities can be found on web sites, Yahoo news groups, Facebook and other ways. By far the biggest community in the Southeast is Atlanta Ga . We recommend you sign up for the Atlanta, Ga Yahoo Newsgroup for notices on dances and instruction: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Tango_GA/join . Many other city organizers post their event here also.
