“I think you got it so right! The venue, the chilled
atmosphere. You and fernando are so warm and welcoming.
Love the fact there's no food prep or washing up to do.
I honestly cannot think of anything that would improve
it. You created something magical and I will definitely
come again x x x”

“Had a great time ( again ).I don't think that there's
been another time when I have had so many wonderful
dances, and I mean real heart stoppingly good !!The
event, coupled with superb music & partners equals
a winning formula. You should bottle it and sell it
:-)”

thanks both of you for all your hard work in organising
the weekend. I had lots of really, really, really
lovely dances:-)
And I think it is great that you try to help to change
our individualistic approach to floorcraft and being

about this to have really enjoyable milongas. Thanks

Hello Tara and Fernando
Just a quick email to say how much Lyndon and I enjoyed
the Tango Feast. What a wonderful venue, and we found
that people were extremely friendly. We enjoyed the
lesson with you, and were sorry that we couldnt stay
for the second one on Sunday afternoon.
“Now that we know more about the weekend, we will
definitely plan to have Monday off work, so that we
dont feel pressurised to get home at a reasonable time.
Anyway, thank you both very much, and we look forward
to doing more workshops and dances with you. Best
wishes.”

really enjoyed the week-end with you. Everybody was

the Ballroom was magnificent, we were not prepared for

it to have been so successful. Best wishes”

“Hello to both of you – and a big
thank you too for a lovely lovely weekend and all the
work you put in. I will certainly be back for the
midsummer feast – I just need to sort out who I’ll be
booking with this time.
I
thought the first workshop got everyone really relaxed
and in the right mood (as well as having being a really
good tango lesson) and was a great icebreaker. Komala
& Stefan were also fantastic teachers - and I felt
you’d put me in exactly the right level of workshop.
Everyone I talked to really enjoyed their lessons, I
personally felt there were ample to allow time to
absorb and work on the material. The location was
wonderful – first time I’d been there.”
-David, Southhampton Tango Feast Spring

“Thank you. Tango Feast exceeded my expectations on
every level. It was an amazing mix of like minded
people; an incredible venue - and you gave us sunshine
outside too. The Ball, in such magnificent surroundings
was aptly named”

gave me back my confidence.”

“Dear Tara and Fernando,
This is to say a big thank you! I had a wonderful and
very happy time at your tango feast. The appetizer on
Friday in Torquay was great fun, especially the
surprise moves for the guys and girls to practise on
unsuspecting partners - caused giggles and mayhem all
round!
The Oldway Mansion was again a very special treat -
with the added bonus of late summer sunshine to make
the atmosphere even better. The opening workshop with
its silent tango was a wonderful experience - suddenly
we were like a flock of birds or a shoal of fish (so
that's how they do it!). And all those little
introductory connections helped towards dancing with
new partners later in the day/evening. What a great
idea.
I was particularly impressed by the teaching - the
attention to detail, the great sense of humour and
playfulness, the relaxed and patient encouragment to
achieving skills. I would also like to compliment David
and Fernando on their music choices. It was truly a
fabulous selection.
I don't think I stopped smiling all weekend and all the
way home, so thank you once again and hope to see you
at the next one!”

venue we have ever been to.”
