DC Queer Tango Collective - Beginner's Guided Práctica

Dance Studio (2nd Floor) Queer Tango práctica, free of charge! Beginners Guided Practice Series - Going from Beginner Series to Milonga Floor! These Beginner Guided Práctica sessions are designed for people who have completed the Collective's beginner series, with the goal of reinforcing/practicing steps learned in the beginners' class, gaining experience on the social dance floor, and learning to have fun even with basic beginner moves. The Beginners Guided Practice will not add new material. One or two members of the Collective's organizer team will be there during each Beginner Guided Práctica as a resource to help people navigate challenges they are having and will curate some themes for portions of the structured session designed to help everyone get comfortable with elements of the social dance floor, practice specific concepts from the beginner series and introduce fun / whimsy / joy into the dance! For folks interested in introducing friends to queer tango, these sessions will be a great opportunity to do so. There will be experienced dancers happy to show newcomers some of the basic tango steps, and to welcome them to our wonderful community. Due to the flooring material, shoes (including high heels) made specifically for dancing are required , or you may dance in your socks (no outside shoes). As in all Collective events, everyone is invited to "Come as you are and dance as you wish!" This event is Sponsored by the Cultural Arts Center and the Visual and Performing Arts Department of Montgomery College. Entrance to the building is on King St. You can park your car for free in the lot next to the building or in the parking garage across King Street (no special permit is required). The building is about a 15-minute walk from the Silver Spring Metro Station, on the Red Line.
