Themes

Stripey Milonga

Vertical, horizontal, circular, zebra stripes, tiger stripes, prisoner stripes, on your shirt, on your pants, on your shoes. All about stripes

Sporty Practica

Short shorts? Spandex? Unitard? How do you gear up when you lay it down?

Bring your Heart Milonga

Red as the color of passion, the color of love, the color of the liquid of life. Bring your heart to Houston and be ready to leave it here.

Greek Myth Practica

The practica where myths are created and super powers are conceived.

Masked Milonga

Say goodbye to the unknown dancer, but will you get to find out his or her name before you leave?

Activities

All activites are included with the entrance fee to the afternoon practicas. All activities will begin and end at the exact prescribed times. If you wish to attend the activities, please be on time.

Mixer Milonga

How to meet new dancers at HTM !

A common question, when pondering a festival, is : how can I meet some new beautiful people with whom I may share The Tango Moment ?

Well, the most efficient and laughter-infused methodology for doing that is THE MARATHON MIXER MILONGA !

This is NOT a normal milonga. It involves the theme music form Jeopardy, colorful pillows, and elements of chance. Come if you want to meet fun new people through the medium of Dance Mixer Games orchestrated by a qualified Dance Mixer Games Orchestrator.

Each moment will be choreographed from 5-6:30pm, so please arrive right at 5pm on the dot, for the full experience and maximum of fun times. Then from 6:30-7pm we'll have a Two-Song-Tanda Practica where you are free to dance with all the brand new people you can fit in your dance card (and the rest you can dance with later ! remember, it's a marathon !).

If you can, bring a pillow of some kind. But get your host's permission first !! :)

Make. New. Friends. OR ELSE !
