Le Tango around the World!

…. I have been staying one week longer than planned in Barcelona because a friend of mine asked me to help him teach a week long course for beginners… of course I said yes!!
Now here is the deal…. he is a great dancer and teacher from Norway, and the group I am teaching is from Norway!! eh eh eh … Anne-Sophie, the belgian who learned to dance tango in the States is teaching tango in Barcelona for a group of norwegian… how more funny can this be!
So, we had about 4 hours of teaching a day: 2 in the morning and 2 in the afternoon… and dancing or dinner at night. I have to say I love to teach beginners, it is just amazing to see how much progress somebody who has no idea of the dance can move and feel comfortable on the dancefloor just after a hours of teaching!
You can see the pictures of the group at http://www.le-tango.com/ under the pictures page!

On the Wednesday we gave 4 hours of classes in a row, and thus had the rest of the afternoon free. There was not even dinner organized at night, so we decided to go on a roadtrip. Jorn had bought a motorbike the day before… so of course, it was a good idea to try the bike and go for a ride! So, we decided to go back to Sitges, but instead of taking the train as we usually did, we should do it on the bike and take the road around the sea. We set out at about 3.00pm on a beautiful day in Barcelona. I really enjoy being on a bike, eventhough I am not used to it. It is just a great feeling to be on the side of the sea, looking at the nice landscape, the wind blowing! So good.
On the way we stopped at a marina for lunch…. a couple of hours sitting at the beach, enjoying the see, enjoying the quiet and the good food.
It was such a simple and great thing to do! It was a good day!
