* THE TECHNIQUE CLASS IS BACK!
Cuddle with molinetes, find you lost axis, cage your ribs in for the beautiful TANGUERA/O IN YOU,
TUESDAYS 7- 8 pm at Turn Out PAC 12113 Santa Monica Blvd #201 West LA 90025. ($15 or $50 for 4 paid in advance) Bring very comfortable clothes, flat (ballet/jazz sleepers) and high heels (for ladies). Email (info@makelatango.com) if you are coming or just drop by.
What is the TECHNIQUE CLASS? Makela
Tango created this class mixing her ballet/modern dance knowledge with
her expertise in tango. This class is especially designed for
followers, but many leaders have benefited from it, by working on
technique issues that are common for both leaders and followers, and by
getting to know the difficult job of the follower. The first myth that
is discarded is the "JUST FOLLOW" myth. Makela Tango is committed to
creating a supportive community to grow in Tango. The goal of the class
is that you learn tools to be a more effective follower/leader and to
look beautiful and graceful if you are a lady and solid and smooth if
you are a man. *ELECTRICAL MONDAY EVENINGS: PRACTICA ELECTRICA (7-9 pm) and BEGINNER CLASS (8:30-10 pm) at the Electric Lodge. Tonight and every Monday... Notice that there is half hour overlap between the practica and the class (8:30-9). The first half hour of the beginner class is for registration, warming up, reviewing what you learned the previous class and get to know other beginning and advanced TANGUEROS.

"MILONGA" SEMIPRIVATE SERIES ![]() Due to lots of requests Makela Tango will continue with the "milonga" semiprivate series starting the week of July 30th. This will be a 5 week series and it will focus on milonga steps, musicality and rhythm. ALL LEVELS WELCOME. What is milonga? Milonga means two different things: 1) the social event where people meet to dance tango 2) a type of dance and music which is faster, more playful, and mischievous. It is a lot of fun. This (2) is what is going to be the focus of the semiprivate series. If interested please email info@makelatango.com as soon as possible, with your time preference. Next series start on the week of July 30th. Limited number of participants

A story so powerful, a government banned it for a hundred and fifty years. A story so loved, that although it could not be spoken, or written, or sung, it was whispered from generation to generation and is remembered still – as even today, one out of five girls born in Argentina is named Camila.Told by a Tango Singer and others in a mystical tango bar, Camila is the story of a young woman, Camila O’Gorman, and a priest, Ladislao Gutierrez, sentenced to death for the crime of falling in love.Singers
