This is what past participants have had to say about past NZ Tango Festivals…

  • The immersion course was one of the best features of your festival. Being able to focus on specific tango dance skills with a dance partner and with such skilled teachers as Adriana and Fernando was just what I needed.... The immersion course was a perfect way to start the festival for me.
  • I loved the yoga sessions each morning and in fact this was an absolute highlight of the festival. It was great to get my body tuned for movement through the yoga session and Stella was just that; a shining star. Next festival I will book into yoga every morning!
  • The venue for the festival was perfect- the dance complex couldn't be better. I particularly enjoyed the separate area for coffee/food. This enabled people to meet up, talk, or just sit in a comfortable area to eat/sleep or day dream. At one point in the festival I sat with a group of women from Christchurch listening to a performer sing Leonard Cohen songs with all of us in tears, moved by the singing and the words of the song, all of us drinking hot chocolate!" "Thank you so much for organising another brilliant tango festival this year!
