Dance Hawaii Kai students got a big treat this past Tuesday. Some of our students couldn't make it to the Dance Hawaii 2nd Anniversary and Charity Ball at the Pacific Beach Hotel. So our Argentine Tango instructors Robert and Vanelle asked if it would be alright to perform the Argentine Tango that they had showcased at the "Ball", during the break after their first hour class. It was a good gesture and also gave our students a glimpse of how the Argentine Tango is danced. Dressed in the authentic Argentine Tango costumes Robert and Vanelle wore at the "Ball" showcase really added impact to their performance. The students were very quiet throughout the performance as they watched every movement of the dancers. It was only at the conclusion when the music stopped that the cheers and applauses were loud and clear that the students appreciated the dancers and the dancers' performance.
Robert and Vanelle will be with Dance Hawaii Kai for another 4 weeks teaching the Argentine Tango. (Photo of Robert and Vanelle by Calvin Ota). Their dance class starts at 7PM with a demo of previous dance steps and followed with a new pattern.
At 8PM, the Night Club Merengue class starts with a demo of previous dance steps by Frank and Lani and continues with a new Merengue syllabus.
