Teaching The Cats To Tango

Teaching the Cats to Tango

For the first time in Kilkenny City, a professional Argentine tango teacher & dancer, is holding classes to help locals learn his native dance. Raul Masciocchi, who has danced all over the world, and his dance partner Nore Gomez, have promised to inject us Cats with the senses of passion and drama they believe are synonymous with dancing Tango. Raul is teaching an initial five week course of Tango classes, which are the result of a partnership between the Kilkenny based firm ‘Kilkenny Tango’ and Stathams Events, the new underground event space developed at The Pembroke Hotel. Currently taking place each Thursday from 7.15pm, the classes are followed by a Milonga, where participants have the chance to dance, socialise and practice. For more details see http://www.kilkennytango.com. Stathams Events will be playing host to a number of concerts and events over the coming months, including the acclaimed Irish cabaret artist and comediene Karen Egan in March.
