Dos Corazones – Festivalito

 

  • You are happy to dance both roles, dance cross-role or just love the relaxed ambiance that comes from seeing everyone in the room as potential dance partners.
  • But at many open role events, you miss the civilised ronda, close embrace, respectful invitation by mirada & cabeceo and the traditional music you find at encuentros milongueros.
  • Then this is the right event for you!  

The Tangokombinat invites you to join the second edition of their open-role-close-embrace event with interesting workshops, great djs and deep connections. The event will take place @ Acting and Arts with 100 dancers plus staff to keep the dance quality at a maximum. 

Dos Corazones is hosted by Melina Sedó together with her dance partner Detlef Engel and a few of their students and friends. As teachers, they have been consequently encouraging role-change in their classes and a great number of their students from all over Europe and the USA are now dancing both roles at tango events. Melina is an accomplished double-roler and has furthermore hosted the first international Tango Queens congress. She is advocating on behalf of double-rolers in her blog and on Facebook. At the „traditional“ Tangokombinat Encuentros and Festivalitos Milongueros, gender parity has long been replaced with role parity and 15% of double-rolers  are accepted on top of the usual leaders and followers. Dos Corazones marks the next step in the evolution. 

Join us for this wonderful experience on January 3-5, 2025

Last time, this class was a big success with over 70 participants! We will also present a few new ideas from our concepts, so be prepared for two interactive and interesting hours!
