4. 4.What happens in the JaM?
   

We practice and have fun. We start by going over the basic melody, and then we improvise around it.

5. Do we play for dancers?

The JaM itself (7-9pm) is just for us - and anybody who wanders in to listen. If we feel good about the songs we were playing, we’ll often play during the milonga later that night, usually around 11pm, as The People’s Tango Orchestra.

6. Where does all this happen?

At Sangha Space! Directions are here.
