Location: Abano Terme (Padova, Northern Italy)
| Abano Terme is considered the most important thermal resort in Italy and among the first in Europe. The town is located on a plain close to a range of low green hills, the Colli Euganei (Euganean Hills). The 'Terme' part of the name means 'spa'. | |
|
The waters come from the Dolomiti mountains, sink three thousand meters deep into the ground and resurface mineralised at a temperature of 85-87 °C, where they are collected in thermal pools. Here their curative and beneficial actions combine with those of volcanic mud. Mud represents, together with water, the basic resource for a large number of health and beauty treatments. Nearby cities Padova, Verona and Venezia are worth a visit. While taking care of your body and relaxing your mind in this thermal resort, the purpose of this tango holiday is a full immersion in Marisa and Oliver's personal tango style. An in-depth view of our basic techniques: posture, walking, turns, following and breaking the codes, in- and out of axis, rhythmic interpetation... |
