Happy New Year everyone!!! Thanks for your wonderful support in 2012. It was such a great year for dancing so lets make 2013 even better. The monthly milonga

Utopia is this Saturday at TDS starts from 9pm to 2am and the DJ will be our own
Katia Singletary known for her wonderful music. It will be held in the back

of tango energy. Our door prize will be as always a bottle of bubbly and I
encourage everyone to bring their favorite beverage and their bring most

New Years Eve Milonga

Jae, Barbara and Thierry will host a New Year Milonga on behalf of Triangle Tango.

The milonga will be held in the upstairs studio at the Triangle Dance Studio, 2603 Miami Blvd, Durham, NC 27703

We will start the music at 9:30 PM and will finish at 2:00 AM.

As in previous years, we will have the traditional bubbly at countdown time.

Don’t forget that this is aimed at being a semiformal event, so dress to impress in your best tango attire!

Entrance: $12 p.p. including a glass of bubbly.

Please bring your favorite dessert and a bottle of wine to share with your friends. Soft drinks will be provided.

Thierry will be your DJ, although he favors tangos from the golden age, there will be some alternative and more modern tango pieces after midnight.

We hope to see you then!

Jae Youn Grisham
Thierry Olivry
Barbara Atlee

Next Milonga Utopia in Dec. 15th

This months TangoUtopia Milonga is being rescheduled to better fit with events going on at other venues. As we all know Charlotette will be doing their  annual Candlelight  Milonga on the second weekend of December. Brigitta’s workshop is going to be in Atlanta same weekend. To help support them as well as give our local dancers the opportunity to attend their event I have moved our regular Milonga to Saturday the 15th. It will be a very cozy event being held in the upstairs studio at TDS. I urge all to attend as we will have one of our favorite DJ’s Thierry Olivry there to give us a reason to dance. There will be a door prize as always a bottle of Bubbly for some lucky dancer. I also urge everyone to bring their favorite beverage to share with friends. Milonga starts at 9 pm to 2am.
Looking forward to seeing all of you at the milonga utopia!
Thank,
Dance the Tango and Dream of Utopia

After Thanksgiving Practica Nov. 23rd

This Thursday is Thanksgiving so the powers to be have decided everyone would rather stay home and eat turkey than dance, so the Thursday practrica has been cancelled. Since there is no other tango event that weekend the tango die hards have come up with a great idea to still dance and loose weight. When will the never ending quick weight loss gimmicks stop – well believe it or not this one works…. The Thursday practica has been moved to Friday and if you have any left over dessert goodies that are still sitting and tempting you, well bring them and give away all those calories. The festive events will start at 8pm and go till 11pm or later if there are still dancers that just can’t find the door. Jae will dj for us. This will be casual as the typical Thursday practica. You are welcome to bring wine or left over goodies, but nothing is necessary, but a smile.

Location: TDS

Time: 8-11pm or later

Price: This practilonga is free. It is our way to thank people for their support to the Thursday event.
