It's both! It's the* Portland ValenTango (Feb 18-23, 2015**)*--both a festival and a marathon (and always has been). Consider the stats:
- *48 classes with 14 great instructors: * (Beginner's, Intermediate, Advanced and Advanced Couples) - *16 milongas with 14 top DJs: *(Traditional, 50/50, performances and even a Pre-Digital Milonga--i.e., all recordings and equipment are analog) - *Plus a bonus* of 4 free Practicas and a free Beginner's Milonga So do the math....the $135 Milonga Pass gets you into over 70 hours of tango dancing. (OK, I'll do the math for you: that's less than $2/hour of dancing--simply the best deal around.) Or if you just wanna take classes, buy the 6-pack of class tokens and each class is only $21...again a deal you can't beat. - To register, go to ValenTango Pre-Registration <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001SsB4iZEe0jPMYUOEAsnsDbNNGkIu8vDwyztBe4WOdpxx88AHFaaPfBw8CrjHhKb4eSmOxTB-HBu-Xd6C81YKt5vuiSeCKKd7eUaCCiDIi2lTmir77yejtPBeye4eN386tGRSIhnpAKKqRrqVCZzEgdaqZxoXdgTxzfZI4hc0PjZl8FLI3OusRCp9tJuiSoQr4AaWIxtj0V2ya3ZEyXkWJnR3F-iCsn1wysIoTo3xTMqMuSWXJEABlBCLwyrcrhn0QkCe2yrM1OYnv-vk1YPQSOEkUvC9BSw8&c=JqAvWYbqYQqSYc9xvdieFzH20AOn8a6EnMFY_D02CpEmy6TGQcci5w==&ch=1JZe-fLlBu_0bgeeqjbPUVNrBPPheyAriInvy9RhT0iWx_N-5figNw==> -- <http://tangoclay.us/> *August Muse: Why I Quit Tango <http://tangoclay.us/why-i-quit-tango-a-survey/> and Poll about cliquishness <http://tangoclay.us/why-i-quit-tango-a-survey/>*
