Zurich-Buenos Aires


Over three weeks of wonderful time in Switzerland is over and now we are heading to Buenos Aires for little over three weeks. Our warmest thanks to all who made our trip possible and worthwhile. Dominik, Jelena, Dodo and of course friends and students from the classes and outside of classes. We had a chance to enjoy great milongas here before heading to the BIG milongas. It was good preparation. We met alot of old friends from BsAs here which again increased our fever... We also had a chance to see Switzerland a little bit more and that was interesting and fun!
On monday we fly to Helsinki and change planes there. On Tuesday we are already in a full run!!! We will be back just before Maailmantangofestivaali (World tango festival) in Tampere on 19th of September. See you there! Or maybe even earlier...?

August in Switzerland!!!


We came to Switzerland and suddenly we were taken to a surprise holiday to the south side of the Alps, by the lake Lago Maggiore! Dominik and Jelena invited us for a couple of days to relax before the work starts. We never knew that it would be so mediterranean just three hours from Zurich! It was incredible! Palmtrees, mountains and views from Norway (really!) at the same time!
During the next three weeks we are giving classes in Luzern on Mondays and Tuesdays, in Zurich on Wednesdays and private lessons. On Saturday and Sunday 9th and 10th we give workshops in Luzern, next weekend also in Luzern by SwissDance Congress and next weekend at DanzaMania in Zurich (both Finnish and Argentine Tango!).

Petäyksen kesäleiri/ Petäys Tango summer camp

The biggest annual tango argentino -weekend in Finland was hold in Petäys, southern Finland. Two couples outside Finland was invited, Juan and Graciana from Argentina (living in Portugal) and our friends from Austria, Martin and Claudia. For once the weather was far too good for a tangocamp, hot and shiny, everybody should have been outside...
On the first night (on Thursday) Maria was at her best in the late nite alternative milonga. Pasi played traditional until midnight and then Maria continued on other program. It worked really nice.
We had a pleasure of meeting Tangueros Polares first in a concert on Friday evening and in milonga on Saturday. What a great quarteto! They were able to play very variable dance music that satisfied all of the milongueros! As a surprise act, they came back at 4 a.m. and played another set for us few who were still dancing! YOU should have been there!!!
