Loire Atlantique is the place to be… voor de Argentijnse Tango
Niet de plaats die onmiddellijk opkomt bij het denken over een Tango, maar afgelopen zondag samen met enkele vrienden gingen we naar een leuke bar in Roche Bernard en keken naar een lokale Argentijnse Tango Club zijn ding strut.You could have been forgiven in thinking that you’d been wisked off to Buenas Aries as the couples started arriving at 5pm and after a quick change of shoes began to dance to haunting South American music. We’d seen a notice at the café a couple of weeks ago and decided to come and see what it was all about. Not really knowing what to expect, a demonstration or perhaps a class, we were pleasantly surprised to see at least 30 couples of all ages and abilities take to the floor. It was disapointing that there wasn’t an option of learning a few steps for the onlookers but with my curent back problem I couldn’t really have taken part anyway.
The dancers were totally into the mood of the tango, many women dancing with eyes shut and leaning into their partners completing the picture with those amazing leg flicks. My friend Patricia and I entertained ourselves with picking out the best ‘killer heels’ and weirdest outfits but the dancing was definitely the thing to watch here on youtube and again hier.
