let's all together set the dancefloor on fire!

Tango-Vadio goes Helsinki

Tango Argentino for all* genders

Februar, 11th (4 pm but t.b.c!!!)

ARKADIA Oy International Bookshop | Pohjoinen Hesperiankatu 9

Tango Vadio is a DIY queer tango project, originally based in Portugal. It is from nature experimental, constantly under-construction and gender-neutral.

Tango Vadio is about creating a safe place for people of all identities and walks of life, trying to get rid of discriminatory behaviour by creating an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere for *ALL*. Therefore it is a a safe place for people and pairs of all genders, and the gender of the dancer is decoupled from the role in the dance.

We believes in making place for freedom and poetry, in creativity, and pushing them into everyday life, reclaiming them, not in a distant future, but today already. It is about fun, smiling and learning. Join us!

The workshop is organized in such a way that all the participants (even from different levels, like absolute beginners or already wanting to improve something) may still learn plenty of new things.

-Workshop is held in English, by Emma Leminen

-For pairs and people of all (really!) genders (m, f, trans* ..)

-Possible to take part without a dance partner

-If you have dance shoes you may bring them. Otherwise, some socks will do the trick.

Tango Vadio, Lisbon, August

We are back!

First we will stretch our muscles, brain-cells and stilletos learning intensely about Tango in a queer environment at the Queer Tango Festival and now we will be back in Lisbon. We had severe difficulties in finding a (new) apropriate ballroom to dance with you. But it looks like this time we made it!

Tango Vadio goes Berlin Queer Tango Festival

Nós vamos!
Vamos ao Queer Tango Festival, em Berlim! E mal conseguimos esperar!

Quem estiver a pensar ir, digam-nos coisas, pois nós, Gloria Badcock e Emma Leminen, lá estaremos, a suar as estopinhas e a dar cabo do ego a aprender afincadamente e a gastar as solas dos sapatos em várias Milongas. sim, porque se queremos continuar a ensinar e a divulgar, teremos de aprender continuamente.

Queer Tango Festival, Berlin (en)

We are so much going!
We will be at the Queer Tango Festival, in Berlin! and we can hardly - argh - wait!

for those thinking of joining, we, Gloria Badcock and Emma Leminen, will be there sweating and wasting our red stilletos and combat boots, learning and dancing at the queer Milongas like there would be no tomorrow. Yes. We will be there. For if we want to teach and broadcast queer tango, one has to keep learning. And that is just great!
