THE ENCUENTRO
This Encuentro Milonguero is a gathering of like-minded dancers from different places who like to dance milonguero style or close embrace to traditional music.  All dancers will respect the traditional "Codigos de Tango" as danced in central Buenos Aires that includes separate seating for leaders and followers and use of the "mirada" and "cabaceo". We will also have separate seating for couples who want to sit together.
 
We encourage you use it as an opportunity to meet and dance with new people. The Encuentro Milonguero will be balanced with leaders and followers and will have a limited number of participants. Only the Thursday evening event is open to the general public - $15 cost.
