ABOUT BLUESTONE ART SPACE

The venue is an 18th-century heritage listed building, with a magnificent high-trussed roof and a fantastic floor. It is located 400m from Footscray Railway Station, with well-lit pedestrian access. Parking is plentiful behind the venue.

ABOUT APILADO WORKSHOP – Leaning into Connection

Join Barry Arnold and Natasha Eracleous (aka Baz & Tash) from Tango Touch as they dive into the dynamics of Apilado.

Apilado dynamics are movements where the dance couple enter, sustain and ultimately exit a shared axis. The couple lean into each other, counter-balancing and connected through an exquisite moving stillness. The style of apilado taught in the workshop has its roots in the lineage of Carlos Gavito.

Tash & Baz teach weekly in Bundoora and are on a continuous journey of merging new and old styles and dynamics. They invite you to join them in experiencing a sublime way of connecting in Tango.
