Where: Denver Colorado

We invite all lovers of Close-Embrace Tango for a weekend of
milongas, parties and classes in Denver, Colorado. This is your
opportunity to rediscover the Buenos Aires experience with many
experienced dancers from Colorado and around the US.
The dancing and parties will be the focus, but we will also have
classes with close-embrace teachers, including Chris Nassoupoulos of
San Francisco, Robert Hauk of Portland and Tom & Cindy Stermitz of
Denver.
Of course, you can also go hiking in the mountains or just sleep in
late. Late Summer usually has the best weather for hiking Colorado's
high country.
The Colorado Tango community is very active, with over 200 regular
tango dancers. The Close-embrace style is popular with or preferred
by at least half of them, in particular the 70 or more who have
visited Argentina.
KEEPING COSTS DOWN:
- Prices for all dances, classes and BBQ will be kept low, $6 - 10 each.
- Frontier and United Airlines have hubs in Denver.
- Lodging with Tango Colorado members or in Downtown Hotels and
Youth Hostels at $10 per night:
