Champagne Tango Perth presents Joaquín Amenábar on September 27th to September 29th 2013
Enrolments to workshops 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 are now closed.
We have had a tremendous response for participation in the workshops which have reached near full capacity. ChampagneTango prefers to keep the class sizes containable so that both students and teacher receive optimal participation in the lessons.
The organiser of the Sydney Salon Tango Festival has approached us to host Joaquín and we are very honoured to welcome him to Perth on behalf of our tango community. Apart from Sydney, Perth is the only other Australian city, to host Joaquín.
