We've tangoed into May in a spiritual way with a Tango show at the Mind Body Spirit Festival ! (see photo below) But before getting into more Tango news . . . here's some inspiration for the month: “Dance like no one is watching. Sing like no one is listening. Love like you've never been hurt and live like it's heaven on Earth.” - Mark Twain - We’re looking forward to starting our Friday Milongas this month. These will be on the second Friday of every month at the Botany RSL. It’s such a great space for dancing and the floor is fantastic (18.5 x 8.3m). Grand Opening Milonga at Botany . . .

Sophia and Pedro will be performing on the night and our friends Tony Leoni and Terri (the legend) will add some extra sparkle with a “disco hustle” number. We’ve already tried the Club’s Bistro.
