Taipei Tango Festival
A number of local Tangueros and Tangueras (look up our FAQ for the meanings of these terms!) will be attending the 4th annual Taipei Tango Festival from 21-25 September. This means that there will be no practicas on 21 September (Thursday) and 26 September (Tuesday). Feel free to come and talk to us to find out about the festival when we come back. We are certainly very excited!
