I hopped the bus up to New York this afternoon, and now I’m at the Brooklyn Pride Milonga.

4 couples whirl around a wooden dance floor lined with display cases of Argentine mates and artwork. There is red lighting along the ceiling beams.

The Filipeli twins were given a challenge by the organizers of Conexion Queer Tango Festival: dance with a third person in the mix, Leonardo Sardella.

For reference, at the World Tango Championships in 2019, the Filipeli twins took 3rd place in tango escenario, which is the highest any non-traditional couple has ever ranked in tango.

Pics from today’s queer tango class. I heard there were 6 newcomers!

Georgia was out today, so instead of 1hr each of beginner/practica/technique, we did 1.5hr of beginner class followed by 1.5hr of practica.

As a reminder, these are free, community-run classes at Montgomery College in Silver Spring every Saturday 1:30-4:30.

14 people smile around a progress pride flag and Queer Tango Collective sign. They are of various races and cover practically every stage of adulthood.

Three couples practice having one person mirror the other in walking forward and back and changing weight without touching. The nearest couple, we see a person with long black hair in a claw clip, a black sleeveless top, and a red flannel tied around the waist, dancing with someone else in a red shirt and red and white skirt who has brown and pink curly hair.

4 couples in practice embrace (hands to arms) practicing moving and walking. We can see pairs of matching pointed toes in two couples, while the other two are lifting a foot to move.

Two couples, without touching, practice mirroring each other, legs outstretched as one half of each couple leads the other to step. The instructor is in the background. The nearest couple includes a person with big curly hair, a yellow shirt, and black pants along with another person with long straight hair, a black shirt and waist cincher, and short black skirt along with black ballet slippers.

We gathered this past Saturday for our weekly free queer tango class and práctica. We'll be doing it again this Saturday, at Montgomery College's Silver Spring/Takoma Park campus's dance studio.

Three couples practice dancing, holding each other by the arms, while the teacher looks on. The nearest couple have their legs extended to the right.

A short-haired person in a tank top raises their right arm in demonstration. Five students are visible in the mirror. A progress pride flag can also be seen hanging on the door, in the mirror.

Six people look on, reflected in the mirror, as a person in a black tank top with short hair gesticulates, explaining.

3 people watch as the teacher, dressed in a blank tank top and black pants, demonstrates a step with a student in a striped shirt.

On Saturday, the organizers of Conexión #QueerTango Festival said they wanted to give the Filipeli twins a challenge this year. They danced with a third man, Leonardo Sardella.

For context, the twins took third place in the 2019 Tango World Championship, the highest two men have ever placed; trying to give them a challenge is justified!

In the first song that had all three, they danced as though jealously fighting over each other.

Twin brothers Nicolás & Germán Filipeli dance with Leonardo Sardella between them. Germán is leading. All three men have short dark hair and beards. The twins are wearing maroon blazers and black pants. Leonardo is wearing a black shirt, black and silver plaid waistcoat, and silver pants. Nicolás looks serious. Leonardo is grinning.

After hurriedly dancing to the far end of the dance floor, as though running from Leonardo, Nicolás puts out a hand, his expression pleading Leonardo not to steal Germán away from him.

Germán leads Leonardo to kick backwards between Nicolás’s open legs. Nicolás faces away from the camera, and Germán faces toward it. Leonardo is facing right, according to the camera. Nicolás is taking a step forward (away from the camera) with his right foot as Leonardo’s right foot passes between his legs.

Their backs to the camera, the twins each hold one of Leonardo’s hands. His weight is on his bent left leg, and his right leg is kicked out far behind him.

Two people dance with a glowing pride flag in the background. The back of a short-haired person in dark blue faces the camera. That person is following. Across their back, we see the leader’s arm, and over their shoulder, the curly-haired leader’s face.

A pair of wives embrace with huge smiles of absolute joy. One is dressed in dark dress shirt and pants with very short hair and small hoop earrings. The other is dressed in a white waistcoat and white pinstriped pants.

A scene of the dance floor. To the left, a man in purple leads a woman with short hair and a crop top. To the right, a shorter person in orange leads a taller woman in a silver dress. Behind, a pair of men dance.

Two women, wrapped in each other’s embrace, dance cheek to cheek. They look like peaceful.

More photos from Liliana Chenlo & Martina Waldman’s performance on Friday night at Conexión Queer Tango Festival in Miami Beach. These are from the last song they danced, when the crowd (after changing “otra! otra!”) requested they dance to a milonga song. The song selected was “La milonga que faltaba”.

Liliana, with blonde curly hair and a long open-backed gown kicks between the legs of Martina, who is in grey pants and a lacy strapless top, as she takes a forward step.

Liliana & Martina both rise onto one toe each as they bring their other knees up, dancing

Liliana, with blonde curly hair and a long open-backed gown leads Martina, who is in grey pants and a lacy strapless top. They’re in Americano position, Liliana standing on her right leg and Martina on her left leg, torsos toward each other, with the other (outside) legs extended behind them.

Liliana, with blonde curly hair and a long open-backed gown leads Martina, who is in grey pants and a lacy strapless top. They are taking tiny steps with their knees bent as they dance to fast music, and Martina is rotated, moving around Liliana counter clockwise.

Karen is lifting up the mentions of food/baking, community organizing and adding that in a bunch of queer tango local WhatsApp groups there’s birthday wishes, food talk, and “the protest is at 1 o clock.”

She also highlighted the queer tango Discord server.

Ray, about the word queer: “I love that that sour milk has become the most beautiful embrace in our beautiful dance.”

He says, “you don’t need queer tango” is the same as “why don’t we have straight pride?”

“Name 68 countries where it’s illegal to be straight.”

Astrid wants to bring back the online round tables that happened during lockdown.

Mikael says Valencia’s queer tango community is still doing them.

(We are a half hour past the end time.)

#tango #tangoArgentino #ArgentineTango #tangoQueer #queerTango #queerHistory #queerDance #queer

Mikael expresses the same feeling I have about dancing in a queer space: embracing someone of the same gender when you’re both queer…that’s its own feeling. It’s not the same feeling same-gender dancing with a bunch of straight people.

Emily says she asks straight people to pay more. Karen called it the Straight Tax.

#tango #tangoArgentino #ArgentineTango #tangoQueer #queerTango #queerHistory #queerDance #queer

Karen once heard someone answer “if we’re all equal, why do you need straight tango? Why aren’t you all coming to our events?”

Karen sums it up as “if you try hard enough to assimilate and are capable of passing, you can come to our event.” But in our events we have our own culture.
