[Tango-L] Tango on a tile floor in Italian Restaurant

[Phil Seyer]

I'm planning to invite a lot of singles
(eligible bachors and maidens),
who know nothing about how to dance
tango, to a milonga with a lesson
from 7pm to 8pm and tango dancing
afterwards.  I'll be inviting the
S.F. Bay Area tango community to join as well
via various local tango calendars. The venue
is an Italian restaurant with a small space
available for dancing and as well as a
bar and a few tables for dining..

I expect about 15 tango newbies to show up
for the lesson.

I was told that tango dancers
won't come back if there are a lot
of beginners.

On the flip side, I was also told that experienced
tango dancers might support the
venue since they would like
a place to dance tango locally.

Any tips on hosting the milonga?
Things to watch out for?
