TABOE

It took a while for the next Taboe Tango Camp theme to find us... We respected that and waited. Now it revealed itself and it was so obvious.

DIVERSITY

It is what we - Paras & Paul and the people around us - embrace, promote and support. Because we feel that we learn more from differences then look-a-likes. Although sometimes it takes effort to find what there is to learn.

So we invite all Taboe-ers to taste ‘diversity‘ and explore when, where and how we could learn more thanks to ‘diversity‘. Enjoy the journey and see you soon.

Every camp has a central theme as a focus and inspiration to the teachers and the participants. We had many inspiring themes such as:

Music - Stillness - Contact -Contrast - Space- Time - Creativity - Intimacy - Dare- Trust - Play - Pure - Imagine - Change - Balance - Intention.

The music

We promote musical diversity, which means that our DJ‘s can play almost purely traditional music (90% or more) but they are welcome to play a 50-50% mix and everything in between. We create different evenings with different atmosphere with the different music and as our dancers have a wide preference from trad. to nuevo, everybody can have ‘her/his‘ favorite musical night.

If we have the chance we invite professional orchestras to play. We had often live music by Beltango Quinteto (Serbia), El Cachivache (Argentina) Tango Harmony Orchestra (Hungary).

Camp workshops

At the camp we offer 12 to 15 workshops a day for you free to choose. We ask the teachers to be inspired by the camp theme. This way we get often the most refreshing or magical workshops. We really want the camp to be a social event. So we encourage you to take classes and dance with many different partners. Teachers will invite you to swap partners at the workshops, but only if you like.

We will help you to find partners during the day and evening. We even have a wall with photos of each participant so you easily can identify partners you are looking for.

Camp gatherings

Tango can be more than dancing and having fun. Often we also encounter more ’inner’ issues, such as ’intimacy’, ’how to be playful again’, ’saying yes or no’, ’showing more of yourself’, ’how to change your patterns’, ’becoming more open or receptive’, ’how to take care of yourself in a group’, etc.

Once a day everybody who likes it is coming together and Paras will guide the group through these kind of themes. Often with a smile, sometimes crazy and possibly very touching and more silent. You never know. We like sometimes to come together at the end of the gathering to share in smaller family groups. For many participants these gatherings are one of the highlights of the camp.

Private classes

Private classes are a great way to work on those things that can boost your dance. Each Tango teacher on the Camp – except Paras and Paul 😥 – is offering privates at a special Camp price.

If you already want to be sure, book here online your privates.

Summer Lake Milonga

When the weather allows we go one day to a nearby lake and have an outside milonga in the water.

Just hanging out, making fun, have a workshop in the water and dance in the lake.

Bodywork & massage

A great start & finish of the day with stretching, relaxing, nourishing and softening yoga, contactimpro, Feldenkrais etc. classes.

Siatsu treatments are offered by Sacha Jeffay (UK) and diverse combined treatments by Réka Horosz (HU).

You can book a session in advance by sending Sacha or Réka an email.
