Every year Tango Alegre | De Koffiefabriek organizes tango holidays for dancers.
This year, we propose a tango week from 20/JUL-27/JUL 2024: Tango-Tango week
We have at least 2 (tango) workshops each day. Our focus lies on exploring and musicality, on a more expressive tango, on moving and playfulness.
Astrid Maria Cerpentier & Bennie Bartels are teaching the tango dance and expression classes in their own unique, contemporary, "it's about more than tango"-style. With tango steps as the excuse, they dive into a whole new (daily) movement world (see also their Neo/Projects).
Bennie Bartels teaches the Feldenkrais classes in the morning. You can read more about them here.
Our summer residence is the château de Chalivoy-la-Noix (near Ourouer-les-Bourdelins, FR), where we shall dance (under the trees) on an atmospheric lighted dance floor.
2 x a day Astrid Maria Cerpentier & Bennie Bartels are teaching tango workshops. In the evening we have tango nights, preferably outside under the stars. Delicious lunches & dinners are prepared for you by our special équipe de cuisine, Marina & Eline & guests!
11 bedrooms, mostly with sanitair ensuite. A surrounding park of 3 ha, a lot of nature around, also to camp out with facilities in the castle. WiFi on the ground floor.
A grand salon with stunning wooden floor and chandeleers - it's almost like being in De Koffiefabriek :-)

It is about quality, fun, late nights and early mornings. Good food and beautiful places. Music and ‘more than tango’. It has the deep learning coming from EXPLORATION, playfulness and a search to express through our physical beings. All of that in this wonderful château in FRANCE.
With a focus on playfulness & movement - finding that deeper connection for a more contemporary tango..
Looking forward to meeting you there!
